Client Manager Default Security Parameters

The Client Manager provides a default security configuration, which is applied to all target servers that have been configured to use a security level of Defer.

The following table summarizes the Client Manager Default Security Parameters found on the File, Setup dialog. Access this dialog from the Client Manager main menu by selecting File, Setup.

Server Security Parameters	Usage
Remote radio button	If the security level of the target server is set to Defer, the Remote default security level results in the Client Manager adding security data to the header area of the CFB request. See the section titled Derived Security Level Details, to determine from where the User Id and Password are obtained.
None radio Button	If the security level of the target server is set to Defer, the Client Manager does not add security data into the header area of the CFB request. Refer to the section titled Derived Security Level Details.
User ID	Identifies the user ID that is sent to the target server environment.
Password	Identifies the security token that is sent to the target server environment.

Note: The default Security Level parameter is saved in the Client Manager configuration file (IEFCMN.INI by default). The security levels are stored in this file as numbers: None=0, Remote=2.
