<div><p>Learn about the types of verification used during the connection
process.</p>
<p>To begin a connection, your server sends information to the remote device
you are connecting to. The device identifies the server using this information.
The device then sends information back to the server, which the server uses
to identify the device. The server compares that information against the information
that is contained in the line and controller descriptions. If a match occurs
and other connection values are correct, the connection process continues.
In the meantime, the remote device performs a similar process.</p>
<p>Your server and the remote device use two types of verification during
the connection process. The first type (required), matches the line and controller
description information with the connection information that the remote device
sent. Once the information has been verified, your server continues the process.</p>
<p>The remote device sends the following information:</p>
<ul><li>The MAC address associated with the input/output adapter (IOA) on the
remote device (either preset or locally administered)</li>
<li>The source service access point (SSAP) on the remote device</li>
<li>The destination service access point (DSAP)</li>
</ul>
<p>The other type of verification matches the SNA exchange identifier values.
SNA hosts that use parallel connections require this verification. This verification
is optional for advanced program-to-program communications (APPC).</p>
