Special Benefits for System Administrators
Jadvantage enables the system administrator to monitor and control sessions between client and host. This provides a secure system by allowing the system administrator to decide who may and may not have access to a particular session. In addition, Jadvantage allows administrators to define groups for users who have the same access and session needs. Grouping is an efficient tool for managing multiple users because it reduces the need to create individual sessions for each user.

Jadvantage includes built-in support for the SSL protocol that allows bi-directional secure connections between the server and the client. The SSL protocol establishes encrypted communication links based on certificates containing the company's identification information. The client digital certificates are supported as well. The Jadvantage Certificate Manager facilitates management of multiple server certificates, both self-signed and signed by a third party Certificate Authority, VeriSign or Thawte. In addition, Jadvantage's security system includes a server-based user ID and password.

Jadvantage Operation
Jadvantage Server
The Jadvantage Server consists of a proxy server used for securing TN5250e sessions and a thin Web server. It is recommended that the Jadvantage server be run in the batch mode on the AS/400. The administrator determines system priority and can schedule Jadvantage to start automatically after IPL. When installed over Windows, the Jadvantage server can be set to be an NT service, starting automatically when Windows starts.
Jadvantage Client
Users access the server via a company URL or IP address. After receiving user authentication, the TN5250e emulation applet starts running, enabling the user to access AS/400 data and applications.
