Features in depth:

Centralized

Loaded on a central server and managed by a network supervisor, BOSaNOVA WEB allows normal user changes to occur hassle-free. Whether you are moving users to new workstations, upgrading software, pushing out new applications, or enhancing security, users simply log on to receive the correct workstation parameters for their jobs.

Web Network Supervisor

The server and users are managed easily and economically via the browser. The Network Supervisor can change or modify parameters from any enterprise computer whether internal or external. No need to use the server's computer for changes or upgrades. It is all done seamlessly via the web and from a remote workstation.

Zero maintenance

Application upgrades and parameter changes are automatically delivered to end users as soon as they log on via the browser to the web server integrated into BOSaNOVA WEB. BOSaNOVA WEB eliminates the need for both additional "push" software and expensive technical support at the desktop. What's more, the client/server architecture means current cache capabilities can be used, thus enabling upgrades in real-time.

Integrated into the organization's Web system

The client software runs on a web browser and supports dynamic HTML page parameters, as well as Java script enabled API's.

Total Security

The architecture allows all internal and external iSeries users to benefit from the network. Users access the iSeries through the BOSaNOVA WEB server which incorporates a web server. The server encodes all transmitted information, complying with SSL standards, amplified by user verification via a client certificate.

Printing via the Web

BOS' successful Printer Client technology is embedded in BOSaNOVA WEB to enable you to print via the web. Fully supports all printouts and printers.

Routing of the spooled printing files to the correct workstation

A rich set of routing mechanisms sends the spooled files printing stream to the correct workstation and printer.
The BOSaNOVA WEB client connects the iSeries printer queue specifying its specific name.
The printer queue name definition can be done using various methods:

  • A formula which is built upon dynamic parameters (user name, station ID, ect.).
  • A fixed name that is configured by the system administrator
  • A dynamic value that is supplied to the client software by another Web application as an HTML field.

New enhancements recently released:

An automatic Java-detection mechanism was added and is available from the Downloads page. Click "Check the Java Runtime Environment on your PC". To customize this feature, please contact BOS Technical Support.

The appearance and functionality of the applet log-in screen can be customized. See the Administrator's Guide for details.
