Possible Cause 4.3.1
There is a network problem caused by the routing tables in one of the network bridges or routers.
Solution
1.Recreate the Ethernet line. Do not override the MAC address.
2.Check the routing tables and/or reset the bridges and routers.
Possible Cause 4.3.2
One of the network devices or networked nodes is improperly configured.
Solution
1.Try to ping the AS/400 by typing on the command line PING 'x.x.x.x', where x = IP address of your MinIT6000.
2.Assuming you that are not successful at "Pinging" the MinIT6000, try "Pinging" the WAN side of the router. If you can PING the WAN side but not the Ethernet side of the router, then there's probably something wrong with the configuration of the router. If you cannot PING the network side of the router then there's probably something wrong with the TCP/IP configuration on the AS/400. Specifically, the route configuration or the subnet mask on the AS/400 could be wrong but it could be something else.
3.It is recommended that you consult your AS/400 Administrator, your AS/400 Consultant or IBM. You can also try the IBM publication, "Getting Your AS/400 Working for You"
Problem 4.4
The AS/400 can ping the MinIT6000 but the session never starts. The light on the MinIT 6000 is green. The host session is black, with no cursor.
Possible Cause 4.4.1
The MinIT 6000 supports ‘Enhanced Telnet 5250’ or TN5250E. The main feature that TN5250E provides is Persistent LU naming, which is where the name that you provide when you set each MinIT 6000 session up is the one that the AS/400 sees for your session.
Two Possible problems can occur.
1.Certain names are invalid. If another TCP/IP client uses a name it cannot be used.
2.The AS/400 will either have this enabled or not.
Solution
1.You cannot use a name that someone else is using.
2.Blanks are not allowed within the name.
3.You cannot use spaces or dashes or any other character than letters or numbers.
4.Case is ignored.
5.There is a maximum of nine characters.
6.Because most
