Notes:
- On the PORT statement for all connections other than Enterprise Extender, code VNNAME if you code VNGROUP.
- On the PORT statement for Enterprise Extender connections, VNNAME is not required if VNTYPE=GLOBAL, otherwise code VNNAME if you code VNGROUP.
- VNNAME is valid on the GROUP statement only if this is an Enterprise Extender XCA major node (MEDIUM=HPRIP on the PORT statement).

Specifies a 1–17 character network-qualified CPNAME for the connection network. VNNAME is reported to the network topology as a virtual node and is treated as an adjacent CP to this node. If the name is not network-qualified, the NETID of the SSCP that owns the connection network (NETID of the host) is used.
For sessions that are routed through the connection network, a dynamic PU is created to represent the destination node. In effect, DYNPU=YES is enforced automatically when a session is established through the connection network.
