Error when trying to connect to IBM DB2
You could try [IP]:[Port] for the server entry. Have a look at these two articles for a warning about Windows 8 and DB2 (not sure if you are using Windows 8)
And this one for troubleshooting connectivity:

Hi everyone,
Thank you for the responses! I have tried using the [IP]:[Port] and [Servername]:[Port]. I'm on Windows 7. Thank you smoupre, I'll check out those links.
I'll post back when a resolution is found.

Hi mckinzie,
Did you finish your test ? Something new on your issue ?
Thanks,
Alexander.

HI,
I tested servername:port, but still the same error.
I tried " telnet servername port" to see if there was a firewall issue, but that test is ok.
servername : port gave another error (The service "port" was not found)
I have windows 7.
