The PASSWORD parameter specifies the default password used with the USER_ID parameter for accessing all iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ sessions. This password is supplied by an application, such as a TN5250 application, attempting to access the iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™. The password supplied by the application is converted to a 20-character hexadecimal string by the encryption process. To override this value for a specific iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™, specify the password for that iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™ in the definition of the iSeries™, eServer™ i5, or System i5™.
Note:
Since this value is encrypted, you should not attempt to enter this value directly into the ACG file. The value should only be entered using the SNA Node Configuration application.

This parameter is optional.
