Hello Joerg, thanks for the answer. Yes, the NIC is connected to the LAN, the LAN is connected via VSWITCH to the OSA. We also changed from layer 2 to layer 3 (IP), but still no connection to the outside world. i am able to ping another linux within the same vlan..... this is how it looks like, but with only one of the two linux started.
q lan details LAN SYSTEM VMT1LN01 Type: QDIO Connected: 1 Maxconn: INFINITE PERSISTENT UNRESTRICTED IP Accounting: OFF IPTimeout: 5 Isolation Status: OFF Adapter Connections: Adapter Owner: LXDBST22 NIC: 9000.P00 Name: 0 RX Packets: 0 Discarded: 0 Errors: 0 TX Packets: 0 Discarded: 29 Errors: 0 RX Bytes: 0 TX Bytes: 0 Device: 9002 Unit: 002 Role: DATA vPort: 0068 Index: 0068 Options: Broadcast Multicast IPv6 IPv4 VLAN Unicast IP Addresses: 172.25.3.101 MAC: 02-FF-FF-E3-22-00 FE80::2FF:FF00:1E3:2200 MAC: 02-FF-FF-E3-22-00 Multicast IP Addresses: 224.0.0.1 MAC: 01-00-5E-00-00-01 FF02::1 MAC: 33-33-00-00-00-01 FF02::1:FFE3:2200 MAC: 33-33-FF-E3-22-00 VSWITCH SYSTEM VMT1VSW0 Type: VSWITCH Connected: 0 Maxconn: INFINITE PERSISTENT RESTRICTED ETHERNET Accounting: OFF VLAN Aware Default VLAN: 0485 Default Porttype: Access GVRP: Enabled Native VLAN: 0001 VLAN Counters: OFF MAC address: 02-FF-FF-00-00-01 State: Ready IPTimeout: 5 QueueStorage: 8 Isolation Status: OFF RDEV: E606.P00 VDEV: E606 Controller: DTCVSW2 RDEV: E706.P00 VDEV: E706 Controller: DTCVSW1 BACKUP it almost looks the same as an existing lan we have in a different z/MV, except that one is VLAN 0001 ans a name is shown on the "Adapter Owner". q lan details LAN SYSTEM VMP3LN01 Type: QDIO Connected: 6 Maxconn: INFINITE PERSISTENT UNRESTRICTED IP Accounting: OFF IPTimeout: 5 Isolation Status: OFF Adapter Connections: Adapter Owner: LXDBSP50 NIC: 9000.P00 Name: DGE900 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< RX Packets: 6 Discarded: 0 Errors: 0 TX Packets: 6 Discarded: 8 Errors: 0 RX Bytes: 1656 TX Bytes: 1656 Device: 9002 Unit: 002 Role: DATA vPort: 0072 Index: 0072 Options: Broadcast Multicast IPv6 IPv4 VLAN Unicast IP Addresses: 192.168.138.40 MAC: 02-FF-FF-00-00-03 Multicast IP Addresses: 224.0.0.1 MAC: 01-00-5E-00-00-01 224.0.0.251 MAC: 01-00-5E-00-00-FB 224.0.1.22 MAC: 01-00-5E-00-01-16 239.255.255.253 MAC: 01-00-5E-7F-FF-FD VSWITCH SYSTEM VMP3VSW0 Type: VSWITCH Connected: 0 Maxconn: INFINITE PERSISTENT RESTRICTED ETHERNET Accounting: OFF VLAN Aware Default VLAN: 0001 Default Porttype: Access GVRP: Enabled <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Native VLAN: 0001 VLAN Counters: OFF <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< MAC address: 02-FF-FF-00-00-01 State: Ready IPTimeout: 5 QueueStorage: 8 Isolation Status: OFF RDEV: E210.P00 VDEV: E210 Controller: DTCVSW1 RDEV: EA10.P00 VDEV: EA10 Controller: DTCVSW2 BACKUP still scratching my head ...... i run out of ideas what to change or what to try.

Virt. LAN has no VLAN support nor can it connect to an OSA Adapter. Only the z/VM VSWITCH has both Layer 2 and VLAN support. So if you want to connect to a externel switch via a OSA adapter using VLAN tagging you must use a VSWITCH. I don't know what are the requierments you have, but keep in mind VLAN is IP where Layer 2 is Ethernet.
