Product Overview

The architecture of Barr Host Communications Suite is centered around several key components. The RJE Client and NJE Client handle the initiation and management of file transfers and job submissions. The Communications Manager is responsible for managing the communication protocols, including 3770 (RJE) and Network Job Entry (NJE), and SNA connections via Microsoft Host Integration Server or Enterprise Extender.

The Host Interface component facilitates the interaction with the IBM mainframe systems. The GUI provides a central point for configuration and monitoring. Configuration files store connection settings, transfer parameters, and security configurations.

The software supports various authentication methods, and encryption is handled by the underlying SNA Server products. The software provides audit and logging capabilities to track file transfers, job submissions, and system events. The software's design prioritizes ease of use and efficient data transfer, with a focus on integrating seamlessly with existing SNA environments.

The software's architecture allows for centralized management and monitoring, simplifying the administration of file transfer and job submission processes.
