The DirectConnect server routes each client request for an access service to the appropriate access service library. The routing process can take one of two forms:
Accessing the service directly, you specify the exact name of the access service. If the access service is defined correctly, the DirectConnect server matches the request with the access service.
Accessing the service with service name redirection, you can map your access service connections to allow client requests to be routed to assigned access services based upon user profiles. This feature allows you to centrally manage client access to access services.
For information on access service name redirection and examples of how it works, see the Enterprise Connect Data Access Mainframe Connect Server Administration Guide.
