   • Digital Certificate Manager (5722-SS1 - Boss Option 34)

   • IBM HTTP Server for i5/OS (5722-DG1)

   • IBM Developer Kit for Java™ (5722-JV1)

2. Verify that you have a secure Telnet server by associating a certificate with the Telnet server application QIBM_QTV_TELNET_SERVER.

3. Ping your host system to verify that your TCP/IP connection and network status.

4. Determine whether the Telnet server is started.
