Communication policy: Prevent connections to systems not previously defined

Use this policy to prevent users from connecting to or configuring systems not yet defined.

This policy does not mandate systems or environments. Mandating these is done by creating and using the policy template config.adm. See Create policy templates for iSeries™ Access for Windows^® to read about how to do this.

When this policy is used:

• Systems not yet defined may not be used for any iSeries Access for Windows function.
• New systems may not be defined.
• Systems may still be deleted, but cannot then be re-defined.
• Environments may still be added, deleted, or renamed.

When environments and systems are mandated:

• Systems not yet defined may be used for iSeries Access for Windows functions.
• New systems and environments may be defined.
• Systems and environments already defined may not be deleted.

To force a user to use, and not modify, a set of environments and systems, use this policy along with mandating environments and systems.
