Just what I'd expect broadcast to do! ;-) However, broadcast packets are really just packets sent to a special IP address, that the stack(s) and the network treat in a special way. So, since the z/VM support is "the network" in this case, the question is does it handle both local-net broadcast (i.e. address 192.168.0.255 on the 192.168.0.0/24 network) and "all-Fs" broadcast (as used by DHCP clients)? > You'll want to put your DHCP server and its clients on the Guest LAN. Exactly! So I'm assuming that both types of broadcast are supported, and that DHCP will work... Cheers, Vic Cross
