Changes to CAICCI Protocols

Before CAICCI Version 14.0, multiple TCP/IP protocols were available (SSL capable and older non-SSL capable). Because the CCI SSL capable TCP/IP protocols also support running in non-SSL mode, for CAICCI Version 14.0, only the SSL capable code is delivered. The SSL capable protocol code has shown itself to be robust, production capable, and well performing. This performance has made it possible to run only the SSL capable protocols—TCPSSL and TCPSSLGW. The TCPSSL and TCPSSLGW protocols support TCPIPv6, whereas the older TCPIP and TCPIPGW protocols do not.

So the CCIPARMs that specify protocols TCPIP or TCPIPGW do not need an immediate update to specify TCPSSL or TCPSSLGW, the CCITCP proc ships in the CAW0PROC data set precustomized with JCL. This JCL executes the SSL capable program but set up to run in non-SSL mode. Similarly, the CCITCPGW proc JCL is delivered in the CAW0PROC data set precustomized to run the SSL capable code in a non-SSL mode. Thus, if the Version 14.0 CCITCP or CCITCPGW procs are customized and deployed to your system proclib, then the CCIPARMs do not require an update.
