HP-UX SNAplus2 R7 Administration Guide

Configuring APPC Communication
Defining CPI-C Side Information
• #INTERSC
• QPCSUPP
Partner TP
The name of the transaction program with which the CPI-C application communicates:
• If the TP is a user application, specify the name as normal characters (up to 64 characters in length).
• If the TP is a service TP, specify the name in hexadecimal (up to 8 hexadecimal digits, representing 4
bytes).
The application developer (or for a third-party application, the product documentation) can provide this
information.
Security
The level of conversation-level security you want to use. The options are as follows:
None
The partner TP does not require security parameters to be checked.
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 secu-
rity 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,orProgram 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.
