Display session configuration

Prior to establishing a host system connection, BlueZone users must set session configuration parameters. A session configuration consists of:

  • Selecting a connection type and configuring its connection settings.
  • Selecting a language and configuring the emulation settings.

BlueZone can connect to the mainframe host system in the following ways: Microsoft SNA Server, Renex Async Protocol, IBM Communications Server, IntranetWare for SAA, or TN3270/TN3270E. TN3270/TN3270E is the most prevalent type of connection. TN3270E supports both display and printer data streams.

From the BlueZone menu bar, click Session Configure. The Session Configuration dialog opens. It contains the Connection, 3270 Emulation, Spell Checking, and License Server tabs.
