3. Setting Up the Terminal Emulator and
Starting WebFORCE Internet Gateway
This chapter provides a general overview of how to configure the terminal emulator
software on your IBM compatible personal computer or Macintosh computer for use as
a system console with the Internet Gateway server. It also describes the steps to start and
begin to use WebFORCE Internet Gateway software.
Types of Terminal Emulators
To communicate with the Internet Gateway server through a Macintosh or PC, you need
a terminal emulator. Many operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows, ship with a
terminal emulator package (also known as modem or communications software). Some
examples of terminal emulator software include the following:
• Term
• HyperTerm
• TERMINAL.EXE
• Bitcom
• Procomm
• ZTerm
• SITcomm
• Macterm
On UNIX based systems, two common utilities are cu and ct . The server owner’s guide
provides basic instructions for using cu on a Silicon Graphics workstation to
communicate with a server. The steps are similar for other UNIX based systems. Also, see
the cu(1) and ct(1) reference pages.
