Why OL Terminal

Modern access for live host sessions

Give teams browser-based access to the terminal screens they already use, without installing desktop emulators.

Browser 3270 and 5250 access

Work with IBM Z and IBM i terminal screens from the browser while keeping host interaction live and familiar.

Centralized session control

Manage sessions, key mappings, landing behavior, recordings, trail notes, and exports from one place.

Recording and audit

Record terminal sessions, capture trail notes, and preserve operational evidence for review and governance.

OL Hub embedded deployment

Run OL Terminal as an OL platform remote with Hub sign-in, platform chrome, tenant-aware startup, and Hub-mode licensing.

How it works

From secure access to operational insight

  1. Connect securely

    Provide browser access to authorized IBM Z and IBM i terminal environments.

  2. Run and manage sessions

    Centralize terminal session behavior, recordings, notes, exports, and replay-ready activity.

  3. Extend the session

    Use recorded trails with OL Integration, analyze activity with OL TermIQ, or expose authorized sessions to MCP clients.

Platform ecosystem

Works with the OpenLegacy platform

OL Terminal is the browser terminal layer for live green-screen work. It complements the broader platform for screen flows, traffic analysis, map-based modernization, and legacy IDE compatibility.

Important fit guidance

OL Terminal is a terminal emulator for live 3270 and 5250 green-screen sessions. It does not import BMS, MFS, or DSPF maps and does not run map ScreenFlows. For map import and map ScreenFlows, use OL Screener and OL Next.
