Agenda • TNVT100/220 • TN3270 & TN5250 • SNA SDLC 3270 & 5250
All TN Host Connections • TNVT100/220, TN3270, TN5250 • TN = Telnet • Protocol = TCP/IP • Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol • Network Architecture = Ethernet • IEEE 802.3 Standards
Unix Hosts IBM: RS6000 HP: HP9000 DEC: VAX PC: SCO PC: Linux Windows NT Requires Telnet Demon Georgia Soft Ataman TNVT100/220 DEC LAT: NOT SUPPORTED! LAT not compatible with TCP/IP on same Ethernet
TNVT100/220 • HHP solutions supported • TN Client (direct connect) • Universal Gateway (controller)
TNVT100/220 • Typical wired environment
TNVT100/220 • RF TN Client (direct connect solution)
TNVT100/220 • RF Universal Gateway solution
TNVT100/220 • Segmented RF System Segmented could be through a router within a building or campus environment, or over a WAN
IBM 3270 Hosts ES9000 S370 S390 AS/400 IBM 5250 Host AS/400 TN3270 & TN5250
TN3270 & TN5250 • Solutions supported • TN Client (direct connect) • Universal Gateway (controller)
TN3270 & TN5250 • Typical wired connection
TN3270 & TN5250 • RF TN Client (direct connect solution)
TN3270 & TN5250 • RF Universal Gateway solution
TN3270 & TN5250 • Segmented RF solution Segmented could be through a router within a building or campus environment, or over a WAN
Required TN Config. Information • Host IP address/addresses • Subnet mask • Terminal IP addresses • Universal Gateway IP address/addresses • If used • Router (gateway) IP address • If used • Access Point IP addresses • If using IP on Access Points
TN Client 15 terminals or less Lower hardware cost Less hardware to fail Less network traffic Load configuration to each terminal Debug logs stored in terminal Universal Gateway Large or complex systems Holds all terminal configurations Dial in support trouble shooting access to logs IBM SNA SDLC Host not Ethernet connected TN Client or Universal Gateway?
