Because you can issue a certificate for an IP address as well as for a name (or for both one or two names and one or two addresses). Cute feature: with a name, you can wildcard the high order node, e.g., *.foo.com. With an IP address, you can wildcard the low order byte, e.g., 192.168.1.* Charles -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Phil Smith Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2016 4:49 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: z/OS TCP/IP question: name resolution order/override Paul Gilmartin wrote: > In the interim, could they just use the IP address?
