PASSPORT Windows XP Terminal Emulation Options
There are actually two versions of the PASSPORT terminal emulation software. Each product uses a different method of deployment.
PASSPORT PC to Host® is a desktop-based terminal emulation suite. This product is similar to other desktop 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 terminal emulation suite that features an ActiveX client that is deployed from a web server. The terminal emulation software 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 emulation software is run, an ActiveX applet is downloaded from the web server to the client desktop and run inside Internet Explorer. The ActiveX 3270 terminal emulation running inside Internet Explorer makes a direct VT/100, TN3270, 5250, SCO ANSI or FTP connection to the host system.
PASSPORT Object API for Client-Based Legacy Integration
The PASSPORT Object Interface provides compatibility with the Attachmate EXTRA! OLE automation support and exposes terminal emulation objects such as the entire group of sessions, a single session, screen, area, OIA, keypad, etc. Applications that require host access and need to control multiple host sessions can use the Object API.
Quicktrial or Download
There are two ways to evaluate the PASSPORT Windows terminal emulation: either download a copy of the software or do a Quicktrial of the PASSPORT Web to Host® application. With Quicktrial, there is no server installation, you simply download the client from our web server. This is a fast and easy way to look at the PASSPORT Web to Host® software. For those that want to install the PASSPORT Web to Host® software on their own web server, you can download the full working copy of the software and complete a full evaluation.
