Changing to Another Rules File

If TCP/IP end system security is running, the security administrator or operator can use the following command to load another rules file. There is no need to disable TCP/IP end system security during this transition.

NW TCPIP SECURITY RELOAD [“<filename>“]

where <filename> is the quoted name of a sequence data file that contains a set of Deny and Allow rules.

If no file is specified, the last file used is loaded again.

When the command completes successfully, the following message is returned:

TCP/IP Security Running <filename>

If the command is unsuccessful, one of the following messages might be returned:

TCP/IP Security File Not Found
TCP/IP Security Rule in Error
