Can someone please explain what the MAXHOP parameter of CHGNETA command does? Would this mean disabling IP Forwarding. The datagram option of CHGTCP command is something different from IP forwarding. I think datagram is where each packet sent across the network has its own destination information. Please let me know how I can disable IP forwarding on the AS/400. Thanks.

What does the MAXHOP parameter of CHGNETA command do
Unless I remember incorrectly, the MAXHOP parm is for SNADS. This controls the number a times a distribution from this system (using SNADS) is allowed to "hop" before it reaches its final destination. Typically you see this in companies with a large SNA implementation or multiple AS/400's and or mainframes. This should not affect your IP functionality. I hope this helps.
