Partner LU Name
This is the name by which the partner LU is known to the local program.
It can be an alias of up to eight ASCII characters or a fully qualified
network name of up to 17 characters. For the allowed characters, see
“Set_Partner_LU_Name (cmspln)” in Chapter 3.
Partner Program Type and Name
These fields indicate whether the partner program is an application
program or SNA service program, and the partner program name. An
application program name can contain up to 64 ASCII characters. A
service program can contain up to four characters. For the allowed
characters, see “Set_TP_Name (cmstpn)” in Chapter 3.
Mode Name
This name represents a set of characteristics to be used in an LU-to-LU
session. The mode name can contain up to eight ASCII characters. For
the allowed characters, see “Set_Mode_Name (cmsmn)” in Chapter 3.
Conversation Security Type
This field indicates whether security will be used and if so, what type.
The security type can specify that CPI-C must send a user ID and
password when allocating a conversation with the invoked program. For
an invoked program that in turn invokes another program, the security
type can inform the second invoked program that security has already
been verified.
For further information about conversation security, see
“Set_Conversation_Security_Type (cmscst)” in Chapter 3.
Security User ID and Password
If the remote program uses conversation security, and does not accept an
“already verified” indication, a valid combination of user ID and
password is required to access the invoked program. The user ID and
password can be up to 10 ASCII characters. For the allowed characters,
see “Set_Conversation_Security_User_ID (cmscsu)” and
“Set_Conversation_Security_Password (cmscsp)” in Chapter 3.
