Configure mixed routing
Mixed routing allows a PNODE to determine what SNODE it connects to. If the PNODE does not identify what SNODE to connect to, mixed routing then routes to the SNODE identified in the Secure Proxy configuration.
Before PNODE-based routing can be implemented, you must configure a node definition in the netmap for the PNODE and the SNODE.
- Connect:Direct® for z/OS® version 4.6 or higher
- Connect:Direct for UNIX version 3.8 or higher
- Connect:Direct for Microsoft Windows version 4.4 or higher
Mixed routing worksheet
This scenario builds on the basic Connect:Direct configuration by enabling PNODE-based routing. Before you add PNODE-based routing to the connection information you created in the basic Connect:Direct configuration scenario, gather the information in the mixed routing worksheet. You use this information as you configure PNODE-based routing.
Make sure that you have a node definition for the PNODE and for the node where the connection is routed in the netmap you select.
