The VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command and routes

z/OS Communications Server: IPv6 Network and Application Design Guide
SC27-3663-00

When a VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command is issued and the profile contains a BEGINROUTES block, the following results occur:

  • All static routes (both replaceable and non-replaceable) are deleted and replaced by any static routes defined in the BEGINROUTES block.
  • All routes learned by way of packets that were redirected by ICMPv6 are deleted.
  • Routes learned by way of router advertisements or by way of a dynamic routing daemon are not affected by the processing of the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command, unless the profile data set specified on the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command contains a non-replaceable static route to the same destination for which a route exists that was learned by way of router advertisements or a dynamic routing daemon. In this case, the existing route is deleted and is replaced by the non-replaceable static route.
