Derived Security Level Details

A derived security level is determined by taking into account the server security level and the Client Manager default security level. The hierarchical combination of these levels is called the derived security level.

The derived security level and values of the configured user id and password data fields are obtained as follows:

The following table provides examples of security level, user ID, and password as set in the target server and client manager configurations. The last column details the final derived security data that will be added to the CFB header prior to being transmitted to the target server environment. In general, the Client Manager default UserID/Password are only used if the target server UserID and Password are both blank.
