<h1 class="topictitle1">Scenario: Share a modem between logical partitions using L2TP</h1>
|
||
<div><p>You have virtual Ethernet set up across four logical partitions.
|
||
Use this scenario to enable selected logical partitions to share a modem.
|
||
These logical partitions will use the shared modem to access an external LAN.</p>
|
||
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Situation</h4><p>You are the system administrator at a
|
||
medium sized company. It's time to update your computer equipment, but you'd
|
||
like to do more than that; you want to streamline your hardware. You start
|
||
the process by consolidating the work of three old servers onto one new iSeries™ server.
|
||
You create three logical partitions on the iSeries server. The new iSeries server
|
||
came with a 2793 internal modem. This is the only input/output processor (IOP)
|
||
you have that supports PPP. You also have an old 7852–400 electronic customer
|
||
support (ECS) modem.</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Solution</h4><p>Multiple systems and partitions can share
|
||
the same modems for dial-up connections, eliminating the need for each system
|
||
or partition to have its own modem. This is possible by using L2TP tunnels
|
||
and configuring L2TP profiles which allow outgoing calls. In your network,
|
||
the tunnels will run over a virtual Ethernet network and a physical network.
|
||
The physical line connects to another server in your network, which will also
|
||
share modems.</p>

||

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Prerequisites and assumptions</h4><p>Setup requirements
|

for iSeries-A include: </p>
|

<ul><li>i5/OS™ Version

5 Release 3 or later, installed on the partition that owns the ASYNC capable
|

modems</li>
|

<li>Hardware that allows you to partition.</li>

<li>iSeries Access
|

for Windows<sup>®</sup> and iSeries Navigator
|

(Configuration and Service component of iSeries Navigator), Version 5 Release
|

3 or later</li>
|
||
<li>You have created at least two logical partitions (LPAR) on the server.
|
||
The partition that owns the modem must have i5/OS Version 5 Release 3 or later installed.
|
||
The other partitions can have OS/400<sup>®</sup> V5R2, V5R3, Linux<sup>®</sup>, or AIX<sup>®</sup> installed.
|
||
In this scenario, the partitions are either using i5/OS or Linux operating systems.</li>
|

<li>You have virtual Ethernet created to communicate across partitions. See
