Check system status

This topic lists the steps necessary to learn steps to follow to check system status.

To confirm that your Telnet server is ready for SSL sessions, follow these steps:
  1. Verify that you have the proper software installed to support Telnet SSL and to manage certificates:
    • TCP/IP Connectivity Utilities for iSeries™, 5722-TC1
    • Digital Certificate Manager, 5722-SS1 - Boss Option 34
    • Cryptographic Access Provider, 5722-AC x
    • IBM® HTTP Server for iSeries, 5722-DG1
    • Developer Kit for Java™, 5722-JV1
  2. Verify that you have a secure Telnet server by associating a certificate with the Telnet server application QIBM_QTV_TELNET_SERVER.
  3. Ping your host system to verify your TCP/IP connection and network status.
  4. Determine whether the Telnet server is started.
  5. Determine whether the Telnet server is configured to allow SSL connections.
