TN3270 Enhanced Networking on z/OS |
|
The TN3270E protocol represents the evolution of SNA as it converged into the world of TCP/IP. It is the primary method of connecting end users to mainframe computers. It consists of a character-based data stream. TN3270E connectivity is handled on the mainframe by the TN3270E server. The TN3270E server converts a TN3270E TCP/IP connection to an SNA session. The terminal LU of the SNA session is emulated so that the SNA application functions as though it were connected to a non-programmable 3270 terminal. |
