Or to put it simply: The parameter field is for your individual use. It allows you to put information in the action config which you can retrieve in your action to use as you see fit. Two good examples are DispatchAction and ForwardAction. DispatchAction uses it to determine which method to invoke. ForwardAction uses that field as the name of a new url to forward over to, in case you moved a URL or something in your webapp (though there are other uses). Again, what you pass in the parameter field is totally up to you for your own Action custom classes.
