SNA IMF Programmer's Reference Manual

Configuration File Parameter 

The configuration file parameter ( snalnkinfo for SNA IMF, or  confile 
for IMF/3000) that you specify in the parameter list of the  ACQUIRE3270
and OPEN3270 intrinsics has a different meaning depending on which IMF
product you use.  The parameter occupies the same position in the
parameter list, and it is still a byte array, but its meaning differs
between IMF/3000 and SNA IMF. 

IMF/3000 

For IMF/3000, the configuration file parameter represents the name of the
configuration file used by the IMF/3000 user.

SNA IMF 

For SNA IMF/V, the configuration file parameter is the name of an SNA
node and an SNA LU class configured in the configuration file
NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS. The node and class names identify the parts of the
NMCONFIG configuration file that the SNA Link product uses for
configuration.

Node Management Services, a part of the SNA Link/V product, creates,
accesses, and manages the NMCONFIG configuration file.

For SNA IMF/XL, the configuration file parameter is the name of an SNA
node and a security class listed in the NMCONFIG configuration file.
Node Management Services manages the NMCONFIG configuration file.  On MPE
XL, Node Management Services is part of the Fundamental Operating System.
