You don't.  You let them figure it out.  First, by telling them what servers
to contact for whatever is needed.  This results in a call to a DNS
resolver, which returns an IP address.  At that point, it's all routing.
(Everyone's favorite TCP/IP topic.)

As Sal pointed out, what you would need to add to your configuration is a
static route to the IP address(es) on the other end of the HiperSocket
connection.  Or, you could introduce dynamic routing, but that would require
even more IP experience, so let's not go there (yet).

If you want to make absolutely sure it's the hsi1 interface, drop all your
other network connections and try again.  :)  If you're logged in to the
3215 console, you can still run your tests.  Or you can be practical and
just follow Alan's advice to look at the ifconfig numbers occasionally.  ;)

I cannot seem to find any documentation on exactly how to tell
Linux/WebSphere to send requests for DB2 data and RACF LDAP authentication
to the hipersocket interface while sending everything else out the default
route.
