Micro Focus Management and Security Server

Micro Focus Management and Security Server is a management tool available separately. Using Management and Security Server, an administrator can create, configure, secure, and monitor terminal client sessions from one central location.

  • Centralized session management

    Create and manage InfoConnect sessions using the Administrative WebStation. Sessions that you create this way are saved to the server and can be made available to users from the server. When you manage sessions this way, you can limit session access to specific users or groups using a directory server (LDAP/Active Directory). See Create Sessions using the Administrative WebStation and Deploy Sessions Saved to the Management Server.

  • Security Proxy

    The Security Proxy acts as a proxy for terminal sessions and provides token-based access control, routing encrypted network traffic to and from user workstations. The Security Proxy enables you to create SSL/TLS encrypted sessions even if your host is not configured with an SSL/TLS server. See Connect to Hosts using the Security Proxy.

  • ID Management

    Use the Terminal ID Manager to configure and monitor a pool of resource IDs that can be used to establish a host session. This eliminates the need to configure a terminal ID (GPID or LU) for each and every client. See Configure Sessions to use ID Manager to Assign Terminal IDs.

  • Deploy companion packages to users or groups

    Use the Package Manager to upload companion install packages (*.msi) to the Management and Security Server for deployment to specified users or groups. For example, use these packages to install customized sessions and Workspace settings. Packages assigned to a user are automatically deployed to a user's desktop when the user logs on to the Management and Security Server or starts an InfoConnect Workspace session with Centralized Management enabled. See Deploy MSI Packages from Management and Security Server.

  • Usage metering

    Use the Metering Server to track InfoConnect sessions and determine how many client workstations use the product. Metering can also be used to limit the number of concurrent users that can access a host at any given time. See Enable Usage Metering.
