Use this panel to select which type of client identifier you want to define.
When clients connect, the TN3270 server searches the defined client identifiers looking for a match. A match tells the server how to assign the client to the correct VTAM LU and application. There are five basic types of client identifiers you can define.
It is possible that a client would match multiple client identifiers. For example, a client's host name may be in one client identifier and its IP address in another. If this is the case, TN3270 server uses the same priority order as the order the types appear in the list above and on the panel.
Before you begin, decide how you want the client to be identified.
Click on the identification you want to use. The Client user ID option is available and valid only for ports using security.
You have completed this panel after you have selected the identification you want to use.
