Using the Netstat command

You can use the Netstat command to verify your TCP/IP configuration. The information provided in the output from the Netstat command should be checked against the values in your configuration data sets for the TCP/IP stack. See the PROFILE DD statement in the TCP/IP started task procedure for the name of the configuration data sets.

Netstat can be invoked by using the TSO NETSTAT command, the z/OS® UNIX shell netstat/onetstat command, or the console DISPLAY TCPIP,,NETSTAT command.

The following Netstat commands can be used to verify the state of those network resources that affect connectivity:

Netstat HOME/-h
Netstat DEVLINKS/-d
Netstat ROUTE/-r
Netstat ARP/-R
Netstat ND/-n

For a complete description of the Netstat command and examples of Netstat output, see z/OS Communications Server: IP System Administrator's Commands.
