Network Center

The architecture of Network Center is centered around three primary components: the Session Manager, the Route Controller, and the Security Module. The Session Manager is responsible for managing VTAM sessions, including initiation, monitoring, and termination. The Route Controller handles the management of network routes, ensuring efficient data flow across the network.

The Security Module enforces access control policies, allowing or denying VTAM sessions based on predefined rules. These components communicate through internal system calls. Configuration parameters are stored in specific configuration files.

The tool does not expose any APIs. The command-line interface is the primary means of interaction. The tool supports TCP/IP for network communication.

The main configuration parameters include session timeout values, route definitions, and security access lists. Monitoring capabilities include logging of session events and route changes. The tool uses configuration files to store settings.
