IBM AS/400e Computer Hardware User Manual


 
The TCP/IP request validation exit point enables additional control for restricting an
operation. Any restrictions that are imposed by the exit program are in addition to
any validation that is performed by the application program, such as normal AS/400
object security. When an exit program is added to the exit point, it is called by the
TCP/IP application to validate the requested action specified by the operation
identifier and other input parameters in the required parameter group. The exit
program sets the output parameter, Allow operation, to indicate if the TCP/IP
application is to perform the operation.
Note: All character data passed to the exit program is in the coded character set
ID (CCSID) of the job, or if the job CCSID is 65535, the default CCSID of the
job.
