Configuring APPC Communication

Defining CPI-C Side Information

Same

The partner TP uses security, but accepts verification by the local TP of the user ID and password provided by the initiating TP. If you choose a security level of Same, you also need to specify a valid user ID that is accepted by the partner TP.

Program

The partner TP requires a User ID and password. If you choose a security level of Program, you need to specify a valid user ID and password that are accepted by the partner TP.

Program strong

The partner TP requires a user ID and password. Both the local and remote nodes must support security enhancements so that the password is encrypted. Refer to the documentation for the CPI-C application or consult the application programmer to find out what security parameters to use.

User ID

If you have chosen a security level of Same, Program, or Program strong, specify a user ID to be sent on the initiating message to the remote application. This value must match a user ID that the application is defined to accept.

This user ID is not related to HP-UX login user IDs on either the local or the remote node. If the remote node is running SNAplus2, the user ID must be configured on the remote node using the Conversation Security Configuration dialog.

Password

If the security level is specified as Program or Program strong, specify a password to be sent when the conversation is allocated. This value must match the password defined at the remote application for use with the supplied user name.

This password is not related to HP-UX login passwords on either the local or the remote node.

If the remote node is running SNAplus2, the password must be configured on the remote node using the Conversation Security Configuration dialog.
