Configuring system connections

Before you can start to use z/OS® Explorer, you must define a connection credential and create a system connection. You can find additional information about system connections in the Tasks section in this help.

Note: z/OS Explorer uses the Java networking stack. Before version 3.1.1.11, z/OS Explorer used the -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true system property to ensure that only IPv4 sockets were used. From version 3.1.1.11, both IPv4 and IPv6 sockets are supported for connections within z/OS Explorer.
