I'm not sure why you are using virtual CTCs. You should try to put the second level guest and the 1st level TCPIP on a vswitch. With the vswitch connecting via the osa the physical network both the 1st level vm tcpip and the tcpip 3rd level in the guest will have connectivity. Or, if you want to have two networks, keep the first level on the OSA, if that is what you are doing now, and then create a guest lan and give the 1st level and the 3rd level TCPIP on the guest interfaces to it. The first level will then act as a software router. David
