I think I have to do the Hipersockets because the Linux will be running UDB.  There will be applications running on VM 4.3 that will need to access the data managed by
the UDB (that is running under Linux that is running under VM 5.1, etc.).

I configuration like this will purposely route any packets intended for
z/VM 5.1 and Linux through the z/VM 4.3 system.  That's fine if you are
trying to insulate z/VM 5.1.

If you want both VMs to have access to the network as equals, it is just
easiest to give them each OSA devices and set up a Vswitch for the Linux
guests.  Save the Hipersockets for interLPAR communications.
