Hi Leon,

this sounds like a problem I've had with HP internal organization some
months ago.

The real problem could be 'local'!!! sockets you can't see within
NETTOOL. There are some hardcoded restrictions which should be encreases
in the MPE/iX OS.

Please, contact your friendly response center and give the additional
info that an enhancement request exists: SR 1653185488
