The Bankway master terminal has several purposes:
● Test / Training Environment
● Bankway Express Server
● Configuration Console and Master Configuration
● Bank Standards Configuration and Distribution
By using an Internet connection, the Master Terminal allows FIS Banking Solutions to connect to
your network. By allowing a connection to your network, FIS Banking Solutions is able to
perform software installations, assist with updates and provide technical support.
Note: A modem and a dedicated telephone line may be used in lieu of the Internet
connection. Please consult your Network Certification Specialist for more information.
The Master Terminal can be used as the server in a test / training environment. By attaching test
/ training workstations to the Master Terminal, any changes made to this server will not affect
your production environment.
Bankway Express automatically downloads updates from the Bankway Express Server. This
service requires a constant, high-speed Internet connection.
The Master Terminal should be used to maintain a master configuration for all servers and
workstations. By installing the Bankway Configuration Console on the Master Terminal, changes
to Bankway dependent settings can be centrally managed for all of the branch servers and
workstations.
The Master Terminal should be used to configure and distribute any Bank Standards changes. A
teller receipt printer should be attached to the Master Terminal throughout the Implementation
process. The Master Terminal must be in a physically accessible location and will be used
extensively during the Implementation process.
FIS Banking Solutions recommends that each bank in a data center environment have its own
master terminal located at its central operations center in order to maintain control over the
bank’s standards.
