The following terms are used throughout the documentation.
The computer, typically a workstation, from which the Secure Shell connection is initiated.
A public-key pair used as the identification of the Secure Shell server.
Refers to the other party of the connection, client computer or server computer, depending on the viewpoint.
A client-side application that uses the Secure Shell
version 2 protocol, for example sshg3
, sftpg3
or
scpg3
of SSH Tectia Client, or SSH Tectia Connector.
A server-side application that uses the Secure Shell version 2 protocol.
The computer, typically a server, on which the Secure Shell service is running and to which the Secure Shell client is connected.
A server-side application that provides a secure file transfer service as a subsystem of the Secure Shell server.
A software component installed on a workstation. SSH Tectia Client provides secure interactive file transfer and terminal client functionality for remote users and system administrators to access and manage servers running SSH Tectia Server or other applications using the Secure Shell protocol. It also supports (non-transparent) static and dynamic tunneling of TCP-based applications.
A software component installed on a workstation or a server. SSH Tectia Client (F) is especially designed for secure file transfer, in both interactive and automatic modes.
The SSH Tectia client/server solution consists of three products, SSH Tectia Server, SSH Tectia Client, and SSH Tectia Connector.
SSH Tectia Connector is a transparent end-user desktop client that provides dynamic tunneling of client/server connections without the need to re-configure the tunneled applications. It enables corporate end users to connect to business applications securely and automatically when an IP connection is established, while being fully transparent to the user. SSH Tectia Connector connects to SSH Tectia Server (T) and SSH Tectia Server (M).
SSH Tectia Server is a server-side component for SSH Tectia Connector and Client. There are four separate versions of the product available: SSH Tectia Server (A) for secure remote administration, SSH Tectia Server (F) for secure file transfer, SSH Tectia Server (T) for secure application connectivity, and SSH Tectia Server (M) for IBM mainframes.
The administration (A) server is available for Linux, Unix, and Windows platforms. It is a Secure Shell server for SSH Tectia Client.
The file transfer (F) server is available for Linux, Unix, and Windows platforms. It is a Secure Shell server for SSH Tectia Client and Client (F).
The mainframe (M) server is available for IBM z/OS platforms. It is a Secure Shell server for SSH Tectia Connector, Client (F), and Client.
The tunneling (T) server is available for Linux, Unix, and Windows platforms. It is a Secure Shell server for SSH Tectia Connector, Client (F), and Client.
TCP application secured by a Secure Shell connection.
