How to fixate a return port from DB2 to DataStage

Hi,
We are using DataStage to connect to DB2 on AS/400 machine.
The connection is established using port 446, but the returning port from AS/400 is random, which is sometimes blocked by the firewall on DS server.

Since disabling the firewall is not an option, we are looking for a way to "tell" AS/400 on which port (or range of ports) it should answer, rather than just use a random one.

Is it possible?
Is there another way to bypass this problem?

Thanks!

So... still the same problem that you posted earlier?
