SAP Parameter snc/enable - Enable SNC-Module (Secure Network Communications)

Parameter
snc/enable

Short text
Enable SNC Module (Secure Network Communications)

Parameter description
If this parameter is set to "1", the work processes try toactivate/initialize the module SNC (Secure Network Communications) whenstarting up.
Strategy
If security is activated, by default, all incoming connections areaccepted only if they are secure. If you want to permit conventionalconnections in parallel and use packet filtering routers to partitionthe R/3 system, you need to permit unsecure connections via additionalprofile parameters. In this case, you need to enter"snc/accept_insecure_gui = 1" for the GUI, for example, and "snc/ac
cept_insecure_rfc = 1" or snc/accept_insecure_cpic = 1" for RFC or CPICconnections.
The SNC module requires the file name (including the path) of the sharedlibrary of the external security product. When the SNC module isactivated, this shared library is loaded at runtime. (for example,"snc/gssapi_lib = /usr/local/lib/libsecude.so") If the shared librarycannot be found or loaded, or is not recognized, SncInit() returns theerror SNCERR_INIT and the work process terminates the process.
