Change Location Rule
How to Get There
On the Work with Security by Location panel, choose 2 for a Location Rule.
What it Does
The Change Location Rule panel allows you to modify a Location Rule's attributes.
Field Descriptions
System
System indicates the target of any operations you perform. When you add rules, for example, those rules will be sent to, and will affect processing on, the System named.
Location
Location represents the source of a transaction. Location can hold an IP Address, an IP Address Group or the name of an SNA Communications Device.
The special value *ALL, when used on a rule, means that the rule applies to any Location lacking a specific rule. When used as a subset or selection parameter, *ALL generally means to select all such rules for display or printing.
Server
A Server in Exit Point Manager is a controlled entry point into your system. These entry points are determined and defined by IBM. Exit Point Manager has assigned easy-to-remember names to these controlled entry points.
Function
A Function, or Server Function, in Exit Point Manager represents a class of operations that a given Server may perform. For example, the *SIGNON Server classifies its operations as those pertaining to changing passwords, generating authentication tokens, and retrieving signon information. Exit Point Manager has assigned easy-to-remember names to these Functions, such as CHGPWD, GENAUTTKN and RETRIEVE.
Authority Property
The authority assigned to the location for this server/function. If authority is left blank, Exit Point Manager will remove the location's entry.
