Get the IP on a dunb terminal

If it is a true twinax dumb terminal (3196, 3197, 3477, etc), then it doesn't have an IP address.  These devices run a protocol called TDLC (twinax data link control) back to a workstation controller - not IP.  The workstation controller runs a bunch of terminals, and it connects over a local IO port or remote line to the AS/400.

What kind of device are you using?

If you know the name of the device (it is usually in the top right corner of the default AS/400 sign-on screen, you can track down the connection method using the WRKCFGSTS *DEV command.  For example, if you are using DSP01, then you would use the WRKCFGSTS *DEV DSP01 to see the workstation, the attached controller, and the attached line.

If you are using a a virtual device (sometimes named QPADEVxxx), then the IP address is the IP address of the device running the terminal software.

If you like, print the device, controller, and line descriptsions from WRKCFGSTS and post them here.
