I'm trying to use a TCP/IP VIPA defined as a dummy device
with OSA-express.
The dummy device is up and running.
I can ping it within my Linux;
but I can't do that from outside yet.
I have tried the add_vipa4 command
in the following way
echo add_vipa4 .. /proc/qeth_ipa_takeover #
:add_vipa4 Syntax ?

This is what I wrote (and reading is equally hard I see ;-)
vipa () {
hx=$(echo obase=16;$2 | tr '.' ';' | bc | \
sed 's/^\([0-9A-F]\)$/0\1/' | tr -d '\n')
echo $1 ${hx}:$mydev /proc/qeth_ipa_takeover
}
We call the thing where $mydev is eth0 or such.
