Online Access Using CONTROL/Web Access

Online Access Using CONTROL/WebAccess


General
CONTROL/WebAccess enables users of INCONTROL products to access
and use those products directly through the Internet or an Intranet.
CONTROL/WebAccess handles the interaction between INCONTROL
products running on an OS/390 mainframe and a standard Web browser, such
as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Communicator.
Note: CONTROL/WebAccess is a separately licensed product, which may
or may not be available at your site.

When using CONTROL/WebAccess to access INCONTROL products
through the Internet or an Intranet, product functionality remains essentially
the same as if access was provided using a terminal connected directly to the
mainframe. CONTROL/WebAccess provides several advantages, including:
• Universal Availability
INCONTROL products can be accessed and used from anywhere in the
world.
• User Friendly Interface
CONTROL/WebAccess can be used immediately by anyone who is
familiar with a standard Web browser.
