The RESOURCES section in this file contains a SECURITY parameter that works in conjunction with the SECURITY parameter in the DMCONFIG file to establish how Oracle Tuxedo Mainframe Adapter for SNA controls access to the ATMI local domain. This parameter takes the form:

SECURITY = {value} 

In this parameter, value can be set as:

NONE

No security is enforced (default).

APP_PW

Requires password authorization for the Gateway and administrative tools to connect to the local application.

USER_AUTH

Same as APP_PW, but additional authorization is required on a per-user basis.

ACL

Same as USER_AUTH, but additional access-control checks are done on service names, queue names, and event names. If no Access Control Lists (ACL) exists for a given name, access is granted.

MANDATORY_ACL

Same as ACL, but if no ACL exists for a given name, access is denied.

In most cases, the UBBCONFIG file has already been configured and you do not need to establish the SECURITY parameter settings, but examining this file enables you to see how Oracle Tuxedo Mainframe Adapter for SNA enforces security.

If this parameter is set to NONE, no security is enforced. If set to APP_PW, the local ATMI domain’s Authorization Server prompts for the application password. If set to USER_AUTH, ACL, or MANDATORY_ACL, the qualified security is enforced as specified.
