New Features and Updates for APPX RouterLast Update: 11/17/01
8. APPX Application Programming Notes ===================================== Only minor application changes are required make use of encryption. On the PC side, encryption may be specified via the ENCRYPTLINK XAPI device control string. The status of the encrypted session (and results of the negotiation) may be checked with the ENCRYPTSTATUS XAPI device send/receive control string. These are described in Section 1, "APPX Router v1.40 Enhancements", "Specifying Encryption (PC Client)." The PC application may optionally provide an Encryption Exit which is called from the device driver to provide some of the encryption parameters and to validate sessions. Encryption exits are described in Section 1, "APPX Router v1.40 Enhancements", "Encryption Exits." The mainframe application may optionally make use of additional data available about the connect process. This is described in Section 4, "APPX Mainframe Enhancements", and Section 5, "APPX Data Insertion."
