Import services

The IBM® Configuration Assistant for z/OS® Communications Server can request existing information from the Policy Agent. When the Policy Agent is providing this import service, the IBM Configuration Assistant is acting as an import requestor. The import requestor can make the following kinds of requests:

• Request that existing policy configuration files be imported for further changes and additions. These policy files are called import configuration files; the resulting policies are called import policies.
• Request that TCP/IP profile information be imported. This profile information can be used by the import requestor as configuration data.
