allowed formats

Syntax:

allowed formats=allowed-DCAS-request-formats

Parameters:

allowed-DCAS-request-formats

Specifies the formats of requests that this listener accepts.

Properties:

Default:	both
Values:	1, 2, both

Comments:

This setting constrains the DCAS listener to process just Format 1 or Format 2 requests. This could be used to configure two separate DCAS listeners, one for each type of request.

Format 1 requests are used by ELF to map a certificate to a username and passtoken. Format 2 requests are used by Automated Sign-On for Mainframe to return a passtoken for a user that has already been verified.
