The PASSPORT SSL telnet client provides secure, high quality, reliable TN3270E and TN5250E host access from Windows Vista® desktops.

The PASSPORT SSL telnet client is extremely cost effective. Zephyr provides a subscription based licensing program that reduces your telnet client acquisition cost and maintenance cost significantly. This makes upgrading from another SSL telnet client a very attractive proposition.

SSL Telnet with PASSPORT

Both PASSPORT PC TO HOST® and PASSPORT WEB TO HOST® provide secure telnet server authentication and encryption providing secure TN3270E and TN5250E host access across TCP/IP networks. SSL telnet client sessions are protected from eavesdropping, tampering or message forgery over TCP/IP. SSL telnet security is critical for those organizations that use telnet terminal emulation for remote host access across the Internet to access sensitive data on corporate or government mainframes.

SSL Telnet Client Options

There are actually two PASSPORT SSL telnet client suites, each offering a different method of deployment.

PASSPORT PC TO HOST® is a desktop-based SSL telnet client that includes TN3270E and TN5250E SSL clients, as well as VT/100, VT/220, SCO ANSI and FTP clients. This product is similar to other desktop-based Windows programs. PASSPORT is installed with a Windows setup program. It can also be deployed using SMS, MSI, Citrix or Microsoft Terminal Server.

PASSPORT WEB TO HOST® is a web-based SSL telnet client that includes TN3270E and TN5250E SSL clients, as well as VT/100, VT/220, SCO ANSI and FTP clients that are deployed from a web server. The SSL telnet client is installed on a web server and provides an administrator program for centralized configuration and administration. All software and configuration files reside on the web server. When the terminal emulator is run, an ActiveX applet is downloaded from the web server to the client desktop and run inside of Internet Explorer. The ActiveX component is only downloaded the first time a session is launched, or whenever the server version of the ActiveX component changes to a newer version. The ActiveX client running inside Internet Explorer makes a direct connection to the DEC, UNIX®, or other host system.
