I had a case that was not set up well: there was only one LAN. After applying some maintenance to the HMC and/or SEs, many things stopped working. 2011/1/19 Frank M. Ramaekers <[email protected]> Each SE has an IP address (I think the zSeries has always had two SE’s). Frank M.

Does an SE have more than 1 IP address as well?

The HMC may also have another NIC that can be connected to another network, say to reach the outside world, or allow you to access from your own private network.
