Verifying TCP/IP Connections with Internet Address—Example

In this example, (Figure 30) the connection to the remote system at Internet
address 9.4.191.76 is verified using the system defaults for packet length, number
of packets, and wait time.
Step 10—Saving Your TCP/IP Configuration
Tosave your TCP/IP configuration files, use the following command:
SAVOBJ OBJ(QATOC* QATM*) LIB(QUSRSYS)DEV(TAP01) OBJTYPE(*FILE)
The associated line descriptions are not saved with this command. Configuration
objects are saved with the system.
Tomaintain consistency, save all TCP/IP configuration files together.
Verify TCP/IP Connection (PING)
Type choices, press Enter.
