<div><p>This describes the rules for creating communication names.</p>
<p>Communications names are the same as <em>unquoted</em> basic names with
the following exceptions:</p>
<ol><li>Periods (.) and underscores (_) cannot be used.</li>
<li>For IBM<sup>®</sup> commands,
*CNAME is limited to 8 characters.</li>
</ol>
<p>An example of a communications name is shown below:</p>
<pre>APPN3@@</pre>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Because restricted character sets are sometimes used by other IBM systems, use
caution when choosing names that use the special characters #, $, and @. These
special characters might not be on the remote system's keyboard. The names
that may be exchanged with the remote systems include the following:<ul><li>Network IDS</li>
<li>Location names</li>
<li>Mode names</li>
<li>Class-of-service names</li>
<li>Control point names</li>
</ul>
