LeMarr,

Two things.  Guest LANs using Hipersockets don't support broadcast.  Guest
LANs using QDIO do support it.  You have to be at z/VM 4.3 to be able to
define a QDIO Guest LAN.

Now, all is in virtual connectivity.  I have an hsi0 defined on both Linux
Guests, but I think I have it pointing to the wrong broadcast address.  Can
I make up a broadcast address (10.22.25.1).  or should I select the VMTCPIP
Router eth0 (10.25.25.155) or to the Cisco Router (10.25.1.1). and do change
the default of the guest to point to (10.22.25.1)?

Hi,

It looks like you are dedicating a LAN segment to each Linux guest.
With Guest LAN you are no longer restricted to the point-to-point
model.  Define just one Guest LAN (VHIP1) for this segment and
one virtual HiperSockets adapter for each guest (TCPIP, LINUX01,
and LINUX02).  Each guest connects (via the CP COUPLE command)
to the same Guest LAN.

You can eliminate DEVICE VHIP2 and LINK VHIP2 statements...

The HOME list can include both IP addresses, but both should
name the same link (VHIP1).

You can drop the VHIP2 entry from the GATEWAY list.

And... the START VHIP2 can be eliminated.


To "wire" your virtual network, somebody has to "own" the LAN
segment (ownership of the LAN makes it easier to manage it).
For example, if you want TCPIP to own it, you have to issue
(from the TCPIP userid):
      CP DEFINE LAN VHIP1
This is the simplest form to create a HiperSockets LAN segment.

For each guest (TCPIP, LINUX01, and LINUX02) you need to
define a NIC (instead of a CTCA) and couple to the LAN (instead
of a specific peer).  For example:
      CP DEFINE NIC 2000
      CP COUPLE 2000 TO TCPIP VHIP1

After you DEFINE LAN and couple from all three guests, you
should be able to confirm those connections with the command:
      CP QUERY LAN VHIP1 DETAILS

Okay, I've figured out how to run a Linux Guest as vctc and connect with no
problem.  Right now, I need to know how to get this running with Guest LAN
using virtual Hipersockets.  I think I can figure the issues on the Linux
Guest side, but I need to know what to use in the PROFILE TCPIP.  I need to
know based on the following:
OSA-E 0090-0092 => z/VM TCPIP => 10.25.25.155
Virtual HIPER 2000-2002 => Portname:VIRTHIP1
Virtual HiperLan 2100-2102 => Portname:VIRTHIP2
Projected Linux Guest IP Addresses:
Linux01 => 10.22.25.10
Linux02 => 10.22.25.11

We do have a Cisco Router => 10.25.1.1

; OSA-E GIGABIT ETHERNET CARD ON Z/800 CHPID =>00
DEVICE DEV@0090 OSD 0090 PORTNAME VMHOST PRIROUTER
LINK ETH0 QDIOETHERNET DEV@0090
; VIRTUAL HIPERSOCKETS 2000-2002 VHIP1
DEVICE VHIP1 HIPERS 2000 PORTNAME VIRTHIP1 AUTORESTART
LINK VHIP1 QDIOIP VHIP1
; VIRTUAL HIPERSOCKETS 2100-2102 VHIP2 (Guest LAN)
DEVICE VHIP2 HIPERS 2100 PORTNAME VIRTHIP2 AUTORESTART
LINK VHIP2 QDIOIP VHIP2

HOME
  10.25.25.155 ETH0
  10.22.25.10   VHIP1
  10.22.25.11   VHIP2
; (End HOME Address information)
; ------------------------------------------------------------------
GATEWAY
; ------------------------------------------------------------------
 10           =       ETH0              1500  0.255.0.0        0.25.0.0
 10           =       VHIP1             1500  0.255.255.0    0.22.25.0
 10           =       VHIP2             1500  0.255.255.0    0.22.25.0
DEFAULTNET 10.25.25.155   ETH0              1500      0
; (End GATEWAY Static Routing information)
START DEV@0090
START VHIP1
START VHIP2
; (End START statements)

With these as the statements, I want to know if I'm going down the wrong
path trying to utilize Guest LAN with virtual Hipersockets.
