The OSA-C configuration works well for us as well.

In our case, we have two OSA-C cards for redundancy. Each LPAR has 4
consoles, 0000-0003. Consoles 0000 and 0001 (one on each OSA-C card) are our
"systems programmer" consoles that are usually offline. Consoles 0002 and
0003 are the operator consoles. The OSA-C cards have a configuration that
assigns each TN3270 session to a particular LPAR and address. We have 44
TN3270 sessions for 11 LPARs. Access to the consoles can be controlled via
OSA-C configuration options, normal firewall rules, and SAF logon.

SAF logon depends on CONSOLxx settings, but NIP console provide no means of security (*). The "most funny" thing which can happed is when someone started ICC console, locked his PC and went home. And his console is upper on th NIP console list than yours. Of course the lsit of suspected persons is usually short...

Another disadvantage: TCP/IP traffic is not encrypted.

(*) Small exception: session definition can contain workstation address, so only the address can connect to the session. A network can be configured in a way where IP "counterfeld" is not working.



BTW: maybe ICC is "functionally stabilized", but not dead or moribound, since there is nothing newer to replace ICC. "Functionally stabilized" could mean "we don't think there is room for improvement and we don't want to create bells and whistles".
