BOS Web (previously Jadvantage)
AS/400 TN5250 Emulation & client access over TCP/IP
Previously called Jadvantage, BOS Web, or Bosanova Web is a secure way
to establish a host-client connection via the web. With this enterprise-wide
solution, you can offer AS/400-to-desktop TN5250e GUI
display emulation, SCS printer emulation, and native AS/400 SQL
data transfer to remote users such as those at branches or various
sales staff. Bosanova Web’s security features,
based on SSL encryption mechanisms, ensure a safe and secure
connection to the AS/400 via the Web.
- Provides AS/400 on-the-fly GUI display emulation including
macros, keyboard mapping, mouse support, color mapping
and toolbar customization.
- The server installs on an AS/400 (directly from
the CD drive, if desired) or on a Windows NT/2000/XP
PC. The client is deployed automatically to all Internet
or network attached workstations.
- Affords quick and extremely user-friendly system
configuration, monitoring and
control.
- Supports full SCS Windows printing via a plug-in that is installed
and initiated
via the browser.
- Employs the SSL protocol with both server and client digital
certificates authentication to ensure secure and confidential
bi-directional communication between the server
and clients.
- Enables display of a graphic file found on the server whose
name matches a string
selected from the display session screen.
- Supports login to Bosanova Web
using the host sign-on services; the display session
automatically generates a sign-on bypass to the host.
- Includes a “thin” Web
server that runs on Bosanova Web,
eliminating the need for an additional Web server
