Hi,

We have five VM LPARS on our z990.  One of these LPARS, LPAR 1, has a CTC 
to a z800.  The CTC is dedicated to the TCPIP running on the LPAR, and it 
connect to the TCPIP running on the z800.  This is an interim solution 
until we get the z800 OSA connectivity established.  I wanted to route all 
z990 IP traffic destined for the z800 to LPAR 1, and then over to the 
z800.  The only connection from all LPARS to LPAR 1 is a HiperSocket 
connection.  I tried to establish a connection via TCPIP, but I see that 
there is no option to designate the LPAR 1 hipersocket device as a router. 
 If I was using an OSA card, I would define it as a PRIROUTER.  This would 
enable it to accept other IP addresses and forward them on other links. If 
I look at the hipersocket link, I see that it is defined as a NonRouter.

Is there a way of enabling the hipersocket on LPAR 1 for IP forwarding?

Thanks,
