iSeries IP adress restruction
I need to configure something on iSeries to prevent one PC to access on our iSeries and think that best way is to restrict IP address of this PC. Please help.

Yes, for a number of years, OS/400 has had a form of native firewall. Access is through iSeriesNavigator (or Operations Navigator) from iSeries Access on your PC.
In iNav, follow My Connections ->(your AS/400 icon) ->Network -> IP Policies -> Packet Rules. From there, you’ll perhaps want to select Rules Editor from the right-click context menu.
NOTE — Be clear that you fully understand how to set up a set of rules before you activate. For example, there is a default DENY *ALL rule that is implied — if you fail to include an accept-rule that allows others in at the bottom of your rules, even your iNav session connection will be immediately shut down as soon as you activate the rules. It’s totally possible that your _only_ access will be through a twin-ax connection if you aren’t careful. Study first, ask questions.
