Connecting to a VT3270 session
VT3270 will connect to the remote IBM mainframe host. The host then will normally
respond with a welcome and will lead you through its log in process. Log in, employing
one of the following combinations:
• With the userid and password supplied by the administrator of the host
• With just a userid (some hosts do not require passwords)
• Neither, if the remote host has been set up for it.
To connect to a VT3270 remote host from the main VT3270 screen:
1. Click Session to open the VT3270 Session menu.
2. Click Connect.
Once connected, use the menus, commands and features of the remote host to access
and run 3270 applications.
Logging out of a remote host
1. When you have finished using the remote host, use the host’s normal log out
command.
2. To disconnect from the host, select Disconnect from the Session menu.
