With SLES 9 guest and WebSphere V5 (basic mode) we had all of our data ba
se 
traffic to z/OS passing over Hipersockets.  Since upgrading to SLES10 SP2
 
and WebSphere V6.1(Network Deployment) the data base traffic is going ove
r 
the lan.  Ignoring Hipersocket.  We've traceroute etc and the 'routing' 

information is correct.  Ping works on both networks.  Hipersocket Networ
k 
192.168.11, Lan 10.171.72.  The network configuration has not changed or 

been altered.  MQ traffic is using Hipersockets.  The WebSphere team has 

brought in a consultant who says, " SLES 10 and VM are now more tightly 

coupled and is wondering if MPROUTE could be overriding the default route
s".
I confess to knowing nothing about MPROUTE (I'm looking and reading now, 
at 
least after completing this note).  Is this conceivable?  How do I find o
ut 
what routes MPROUTE is 'using', and Finally, how would VM:MPROUTE even kn
ow 
that both networks end up at the same host?
