The read-only User field shows the name of the user or group.

The body of the screen is made up of lines that can refer to different IPv6 address ranges. To modify the information for the user, you can edit or clear existing lines or add new ones.

Possible values include:

IPv6 Address

The IPv6 address for the range of addresses. In addition to an IPv6 address, you can set this field to *ALL for rules applied to all IPv6 ranges that aren't otherwise specified.

Address prefix length

The length of the IPv6 address prefix. This can be set to from 1-128.

1=Allow 2=Reject 3=Altlogon

How Firewall responds to requests by the user for incoming FTP/REXEC logons from this IPv6 range. Possible values include:

• 1: Accept logon requests
• 2: Reject logon requests
• 3: Require an ALTLOGON connection to connect, as set on the Modify FTP/REXEC Logon User screen, shown at Modifying a User for Incoming FTP/REXEC Logons.

Text

A free-form text description of the rule.

If you are using *ALTLOGON, as indicated in IBM documentation, the user takes on a different identity, including that user's authority settings. Set the section of the screen labeled For*ALTLOGON (alternative logon):​ to appropriate values.

After entering information in these fields, press the Enter key.
