    This is a question from the December 8 webcast titled "What's New in WebSphere MQ v7.1 Security?"

    Since SET CHLAUTH is a runmqsc command, there is a corresponding DISPLAY CHLAUTH command.

    In addition to using DIS CHLAUTH to display the rules that have bbeen defined, there is also an option to check the rules as they would be at run time.  From Morag's What's New in WMQ v7.1 Security presentation:

    "The DISPLAY CHLAUTH command can be used with the MATCH(RUNCHECK)
    option to verify a simulated connection (pretending to have an address or id). This
    means you can test rules from the console without making a real connection."

    Of course, the new dmpmqcfg command will also capture the CHLAUTH rules and you can view them that way as well.
