Transport channel name

Name of the UDP inbound transport channel.
The name field cannot contain the following characters: # \ / , : ; " * ? < > | = + & % '
This name must be unique across all channels in a WAS environment. For example, a UDP transport channel and a TCP transport channel cannot have the same name if they reside within the same system.

Default UDP_(n) where (n) represents the number of instances of this channel in the system

Address exclude list

IP addresses that are not allowed to make inbound connections. Use a comma to separate the IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses to which you want to deny access on inbound UDP connection requests.
The address include list and host name include list are processed before the address exclude list and the host name exclude list. If all four lists are defined:

An address that is defined on either inclusion list will be allowed access provided it is not included on either of the exclusion lists.
If an address is included in both an inclusion list and in an exclusion list, it is not allowed access.

Data type String
Range Valid IPv4 and IPv6 addresses with a wildcard character (*), an asterisk. All four elements of an IPv4 address must be represented by a number or a wildcard character. All eight numeric values of an IPv6 address must be represented by a number or the wildcard character (*).
Example
The following examples are valid IPv4 addresses that can be included in an Address exclude list:
*.1.255.0 254.*.*.9 1.*.*.*
All eight numeric values of an IPv6 address must be represented by a number or the wildcard character (*), an asterisk. No shortened version of the IPv6 address should be used. Even though a shortened version is processed with no error given, it does not function correctly in this list. Each numeric entry should be a 1- 4 digit hexadecimal number.
The following examples are valid IPv6 addresses that can be included in an Address exclude list:
0:*:*:0:007F:0:0001:0001 F:FF:FFF:FFFF:1:01:001:0001 1234:*:4321:*:9F9f:*:*:0000
