Doug: I think it's a bit more basic than that. He is unable to PING the HMC. Once in the VPN he can PING the gateway but the HMC doesn't respond to a PING.
It shouldn't take much more than connection to the net and an IP address to respond to a PING, shouldn't it? Mike Myers On 10/03/2011 09:15 PM, Doug Fuerst wrote:
You need to read the appropriate HMC Operations Guide for the processor you have. Each is different depending on the HMC level. The books have a section on remote HMC operation and how to set it up. It is not just the IP addressing, it is also permissions in the userid's on the HMC.

I am trying to access my HMC remotely. My school requires I use a VPN. The IP address, gateway and mask are set by my school, and are supposed to work with this VPN. I can ping the Gateway from home, but not the assigned IP (it is static and not DHCP). I used the CUSTOM NETWORK SETTINGS in the HMC, but I think I must have missed a setting. I have the IP set for eth0 and "routing enable". Does anyone know the generic settings for remote HMC access?
