Thanks for replying so quickly.
>>Does your card in LCS mode have a non-zero MAC address?
No. It displays a MAC equal to the one that the HMC displays.
>>Are your routing tables set up to tell the network to route 192.168.x.x
through 172.16.64.3?
Yes. The Cisco is the gateway with 172.16.64.1 for an address.
>>The fact that the router is not forwarding the packets to the OSA

the router.
I think you've hit on something. The OSAs are actually connected to a
switch connected to the router forwarding the packets. In fact, the two
OSA cards are plugged into different ports/VLANs. I think the problem is
beyond my control (unfortunately). I need to find out what the Cisco
router sees as well as what the switch is getting. Hopefully it won't
require too much arm twisting. (You know how proprietary LAN/Network guys
can be :)
Thanks again.

Matt,
My system shows the same effect:

It doesn't seem to cause our Cisco router any problems. Are your routing
tables set up to tell the network to route 192.168.x.x through 172.16.64.3?
If not, are you running a dynamic routing protocol on your Linux/390
system?
You should be doing one or the other. The fact that the LCS mode card
works
is odd. The fact that the router is not forwarding the packets to the OSA
would seem to imply that the two cards are giving different information to
the router. Does your card in LCS mode have a non-zero MAC address?
