Specifies whether VTAM® performs session-level LU-LU verification during activation of LU-LU 6.2 sessions. The related SECLVL options specify the type of verification. If you do not code SECLVL, VTAM attempts to use the enhanced protocol if VERIFY=OPTIONAL or VERIFY=REQUIRED is specified, but will accept basic protocol.
If you code VERIFY=OPTIONAL or VERIFY=REQUIRED, a security
management product, such as RACF®* 1.9
or later, must be installed and active, and a profile for the LU needs
to be in the security management product's database. With RACF 1.9, the APPCLU class needs
to be active and a profile of the LU needs to be in the APPCLU class;
if not, the OPEN ACB will fail. If the application specifies PARMS=(NQNAMES=YES)
on the ACB, the profile for the LU must include the remote partner
LU's network identifier. See z/OS Communications Server: SNA Programmer's
LU 6.2 Guide for more information.
- VERIFY=NONE
- Specifies that no verification of the partner LU’s identity
takes place during session activation.
Note that a parameter conflict results if you code SECLVL on the same application program major node as VERIFY=NONE.
- VERIFY=OPTIONAL
- Specifies that identity verification is performed for certain partner LUs during session activation. Determination for which partner LUs the LU-LU verification is performed depends on whether there is a password defined for the LU-LU pair in the installed security manager product. See z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide for information about how VTAM determines when to perform LU-LU verification.
- VERIFY=REQUIRED
- Specifies that VTAM verifies the identity of all partner LUs during activation of sessions between LU 6.2 applications. Every partner LU must have an LU-LU password defined. Any partner LUs that do not have an LU-LU password defined cannot establish LU 6.2 sessions with this application program.
