Connection parameter overrides

ZIETrans allows Host On-Demand session parameters to be used as connection parameters for ZIETrans host connections. For more information about these parameters, see the Host On-Demand documentation: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/host-on-demand/13.0 and search on session parameters.

For ZIETrans Web applications, these connection parameters can be overridden on the URL used to access the ZIETrans application. For example, a URL like the following can be entered:

http://servername:port/appname/index.jsp?host=9.42.141.26&sessionType=1&port=523&
LUName=LU00001&TNEnhanced=true

After the server name, port, and ZIETrans application name, you specify the welcome page index.jsp, followed by a question mark (?) and then the name=value pairs for the parameters, separated by ampersands (&). The values are the text values defined by Host On-Demand, not the values that are used elsewhere in the application.hap file. For example, sessionType=1 for 3270, and sessionType=2 for 5250.

In addition to the Host On-Demand session parameters, the SSLP12FilePath and SSLP12Password parameters can also be overridden. The SSLP12FilePath and SSLP12Password parameters specify the location and password of the PKCS12 keystore file used for SSL connections. For more information, see Security.

To control which connection parameters, if any, can be overridden, select one of the following radio buttons:

Allow all default connection parameters to be overridden by client requests: Selecting this button allows all connection parameters to be overridden except for those listed and selected in the table.

Do not allow any default connection parameters to be overridden by client requests: Selecting this button allows no connection parameters to be overridden except for those listed and selected in the table.

You can provide exceptions to the choice you select by adding or removing connection parameters. To get a list of available connection parameters, click the Add button.
