11.1 – Verify TCP/IP Connectivity

The Connector for RACF communicates with the Connector Gateway using the TCP/IP protocol.

A functional TCP/IP connection between Connector for RACF and the Connector Gateway is required. Any network topology configuration that supports TCP/IP (hardware and software) can be used, as long as TCP/IP connections can be established between Connector for RACF and the Connector Gateway. Connectivity should be verified before you start the Connector Gateway (for example, use the ping command, Telnet commands or other TCP/IP applications).
