The PU_NAME parameter specifies the name of the local PU that uses this link if the adjacent node is defined to be a host or if the SOLICIT_SSCP_SESSIONS is specified as 1 on a link to an APPN® node. If the adjacent node is not defined to be a host, and is not defined as an APPN® node with SOLICIT_SSCP_SESSIONS=1, this field is ignored.

  • The remaining characters can be alphanumeric characters (A–Z, 0–9) or special characters (@, #, $).
