TN BRIDGE Host Integration Pack 3.5
Architecture - Mainframe Access Layer
The Mainframe Access Controls are those which communicate with mainframe systems and expose a set of properties, methods and events to handle the data interchange. The TNB3270 and TNB5250 controls fall into this category.
- TNB3270E Delphi Component
Implements the client TN3270E communication protocol. It connects to the telnet 3270 server that is included in the TCP/IP package for IBM S/3XX Mainframes (if it has TCP/IP support) or to an external TN3270-SNA gateway like Microsoft SNA Server. It supports connecting to a LU pool or a specific LU. It also supports extended Data Stream and IBM 3278 mod 2, 3 and 4 emulation. - TNB5250E Component
Implements the client TN5250E communication protocol. It connects to the telnet 5250 server that is included in the TCP/IP package for the IBM AS/400 (if it has TCP/IP support) or to an external TN5250-SNA gateway like Microsoft SNA Server. It also supports 24x80 and 27x132 terminal types. - TNB3287 Component
Implements the client TN3270E communication protocol for printer type IBM-3287-1, supporting SNA Character String codes. - TNB3812 Component
Implements a TN5250E communication protocol for printer type IBM-3812-1, supporting SNA Character String codes. - LPD Component
Implements a Line Printer Deamon protocol, servicing SNA Character String printers like IBM-3287-1 and IBM-3812-1. - IND$File Component
Implements IND$FILE file transfer with S/390 hosts. - Extended OHIO Manager Component
Implements the Open Host Interface Objects to TN BRIDGE Components.
The architecture can be separated into three (3) key areas, according to its functions:
