VM is likely to already be routing you out, but whatever is upstream of VM in the network doesn't know that to get to your address it has to go through VM. Either your network guys will have to configure a static route, or they will have to accept dynamic routing updates from VM and VM will have to announce the route to your Linux guest. The CTC itself is (from the Linux perspective) simply a point-to-point IP link; think of it like dialup PPP if you like. If you're running z/VM 4.2 with recent service or anything later, you probably want to use Guest LANs instead, as they're a lot more like just working with an Ethernet adapter.
