Visara CNA-8000 Installation - Manual (Page 108)

Chapter 10. TN3270 Client Configuration
10-4 707158-003
To add a port for the CNA-8000 to listen to, press the [New] button. The Port field will
become a data entry field allowing you to type in the new port number.
The TN3270 client platform must support SSL encryption to establish a session to the
CNA-8000 when the Encryption option has been selected. Many emulators have
encryption built into the emulator. By default Visara uses self-signed certificates for SSL
encryption. Optionally you may choose to obtain your own certificates for use on the
CNA-8000 from a trusted certificate provider, or you may choose to load your own
corporate certificate. Contact your Visara support person for using SSL certificates other
than the one shipped on the platform.
Visara also offers a PC software package, eConduit that can provide encryption when the
emulator itself does not include it.
Field Definitions:
Port: This is a dropdown control that allows you to display the ports that have been
configured, and is an input field when you want to add another listening port. TCP ports
that are accepted are 23 (Telnet default port) and in the 1026-49151 range. There are a
few ports in the allowed range that are predefined for other protocols and may be
unavailable. A warning message will appear if you attempt to configure one of those port
numbers.
Encrypted: This checkbox is used to define whether SSL encryption will be required to
access the displayed port.
