TCP/IP troubleshooter
Verify that TCP/IP is active on the remote system
If the remote system is using i5/OS, follow these steps:
- From the command line on the remote system, type STRTCP.
- Verify that TCP/IP has started:
- If TCP/IP was already active when you entered STRTCP, you should receive the message TCP/IP currently active.
- If TCP/IP was not active and STRTCP started TCP/IP successfully, you should receive the message STRTCP completed successfully.
- If you are using IPv6, verify that IPv6 has been configured and is active on an interface in your network. For details see
Configure IPv6.
If you do not have control of the remote system, contact the network administrator for the remote system to find out whether TCP/IP is active.
