AS400 IBM client access with Twinax, Ethernet, TCP/IP, LAN and/or WAN

AS400 Solutions >PC Connectivity: AS400 IBM Client Access >Overview

	Client Access to IBM AS400 with Twinax, LAN or WAN
	Client access for PCs direct to existing Twinax infrastructure is implemented by replacing dumb terminals with Twinax-adapted PCs. This protects the investment in the Twinax cabling infrastructure. Software that implements TCP/IP over Twinax makes it possible for these clients to access local or wide area networks based on that protocol. Other organizations have opted to create local area networks (LANs), usually Ethernet TCP/IP, to which PCs and printers as well as other servers or multiple hosts are attached. Some enterprises implement wide area networks (WAN) with TCP/IP enabling resource sharing of multiple printers, servers and systems.
	Client Access to IBM AS400 using Twinax Plus Ethernet
	Still other organizations have both Twinax and Ethernet networks in place, choosing one or the other for specific applications or departments depending on their need for the client to access data and applications beyond the iSeries host.
	Benefits of Emulation for Client Access to IBM AS400
	No matter how the physical connection is established, to communicate with the iSeries host, all these PCs must emulate the Twinax terminal (5250). This client access emulation software allows users to:

Display multiple 5250 sessions on the PC

Enhance the client display by transforming green screens in real time into graphical screens (GUI) with a Windows look and feel

Print iSeries data on local or networked printers

Client access to browse files and folders on iSeries host

Create and execute SQL-based data and file transfers
