Component Terminology
The following terms are used throughout the documentation.
client computer
The computer, typically a
workstation, from which the Secure Shell connection is initiated.
host key pair
A public-key pair used to
identify a Secure Shell server. The private key file is accessible only
to the server. The public key file is distributed to users connecting to
the server.
remote host
Refers to the other party of the
connection, client computer or
server computer, depending on the viewpoint.
Secure Shell client
A client-side application
that uses the Secure Shell version 2 protocol, for example ssh2, sftp2
or scp2 of SSH Tectia Client and Server, or SSH Tectia Connector.
Secure Shell server
A server-side application
that uses the Secure Shell version 2 protocol.
server computer
The computer, typically a server,
on which the Secure Shell service is running and to which the Secure Shell client is
connected.
SFTP server
A server-side application that provides
a secure file transfer service as a subsystem of the Secure Shell server.
SSH Tectia Client
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.
SSH Tectia Client with EFT Expansion Pack
With the optional EFT Expansion Pack, SSH Tectia Client can be expanded
to perform enhanced file transfer (EFT) operations that require higher
encryption performance, APIs for application-level integration, and
additional reliability features such as checkpoint-restart. In addition,
SSH Tectia Client with EFT Expansion Pack incorporates an FTP-SFTP Conversion Module to facilitate secure
replacement of FTP without the need to modify file transfer scripts or
applications.
SSH Tectia client/server solution
The SSH Tectia client/server
solution consists of three products, SSH Tectia Server, SSH Tectia Client, and SSH Tectia Connector.
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 with Tunneling Expansion Pack and SSH Tectia Server for IBM z/OS.
SSH Tectia Server
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 for secure system administration, SSH Tectia Server with EFT Expansion Pack for secure file
transfer, SSH Tectia Server with Tunneling Expansion Pack for secure application connectivity, and SSH Tectia Server for IBM z/OS for IBM
mainframes.
The basic SSH Tectia Server is available for Linux, Unix, and Windows platforms.
SSH Tectia Server with EFT Expansion Pack
SSH Tectia Server with EFT Expansion Pack is available for Linux, Unix, and
Windows platforms. In addition to allowing normal Secure Shell connections,
it supports the enhanced file transfer (EFT) features provided by SSH Tectia Client with EFT Expansion Pack.
SSH Tectia Server with Tunneling Expansion Pack
SSH Tectia Server with Tunneling Expansion Pack is available for Linux, Unix, and
Windows platforms. In addition to allowing normal Secure Shell connections,
it supports the enhanced file transfer (EFT) features when used with SSH Tectia Client with EFT Expansion Pack
and transparent application tunneling when used with SSH Tectia Connector.
SSH Tectia Server for IBM z/OS
SSH Tectia Server for IBM z/OS provides normal Secure Shell connections and supports
the enhanced file transfer (EFT) features when used with SSH Tectia Client with EFT Expansion Pack and transparent
application tunneling when used with SSH Tectia Connector.
tunneled application
TCP application secured
by a Secure Shell connection.
user key pair
A public-key pair used to
identify a Secure Shell user. The private key file is accessible only to
the user. The public key file is copied to the servers the user wants to
connect to.
