Product Overview

The architecture of Brixton TN3270 Open Client comprises several key components. The TN3270 client is the primary interface, handling user input and display output. The connection manager establishes and maintains connections to mainframe hosts.

The terminal emulator interprets and renders the 3270 data stream. These components communicate primarily through internal function calls and data structures within the client application. The client does not use a dedicated database or storage mechanism beyond configuration files and log files.

Configuration files, typically in a text-based format, store connection profiles, terminal settings, and authentication information. The client uses the TN3270 protocol over TCP/IP for communication, with port 23 being the default. For secure connections, SSL/TLS encryption is supported.

The client supports user ID and password authentication. Compared to other products, Brixton TN3270 Open Client offers a streamlined architecture focused on core terminal emulation functionality. The product's design prioritizes stability and compatibility with various mainframe environments.

The configuration files are typically located in the user's home directory or a system-wide directory, depending on the installation.
