  • Configuring TN3270 C H a P T E R
    CHAPTER 13 Configuring TN3270 IBM 3270 display terminals are among the computing community’s most widely implemented and emulated for host-based computing. Information in this chapter will help you understand the TN3270 terminal emulation environment, and how to use and create files that will allow terminals connected to the communication servers to be used for TN3270 operation. For a complete description of the commands in this chapter, see the Communication Server Command Reference publication. Cisco’s Implementation of TN3270 The TN3270 terminal emulation software is based on software developed at the University of California, Berkeley. This software allows any terminal to be used as an IBM 3270-type terminal. Users with non-3270 terminals can take advantage of the emulation capabilities to perform the functions of an IBM 3270-type terminal. Specifically, Cisco’s implementation supports emulation of an IBM 3278-2 terminal providing an 80 by 24 display. True IBM 3270-type terminals use a character format referred to as extended binary-coded decimal interchange code (EBCDIC). EBCDIC consists of 8-bit coded characters and was originally developed by IBM. Emulation is made possible by termcap and curses functions developed by Berkeley UNIX system developers. These functions translate the keyboard and terminal characteristics for ASCII-type terminals into those expected by an IBM host. ASCII characters are listed in the “ASCII Character Set” appendix in the Communication Server Command Reference publication. Formally, a termcap is a two-part terminal-handling mechanism. It consists of a database and a subroutine library. The database describes the capabilities of each terminal to be supported; the subroutine library allows programs to query the database and to make use of the values it contains.
