Issue/Introduction

After the change of Broadcom's IP address for RECEIVE ORDER (Critical Alert 20111) you had to change our firewall rules to allow traffic to the new IP address.

However, running the same JCL, just with IP address change, the jobs receive this error:

GIM69195S ** RECEIVE PROCESSING HAS FAILED. THE SERVER AT https://141.202.0.16/receiveorder DETECTED AN ERROR: 404 - Not Found.            

Another symptom of this is during the connection to https://eapi.broadcom.com/receiveorder it will fail with an abend S222:

request type="submitUpdateOrderRequest" textinv="/tmp/SMPE2022080151429954596/in
 ventory" content="all" waitTime="NOLIMIT"                                                                                                                         
  Connection failed.
 Connection attempt: 1
 Will retry connection to the order server in 1 minute.
 Connection failed.
 Connection attempt: 2
 Will retry connection to the order server in 1 minute.
 Connection failed.
 Connection attempt: 3
 Will retry connection to the order server in 1 minute.
 Connection failed.
Etc.
