AS/400 IBM Network Station: Techniques for Deployment in a WAN
set of Java applets that provide a basic set of functions such as email,
calendar, word processing, spreadsheet, address book and presentation
graphics in a single product. IBM Network Station Manager for AS/400
Release 3 allows you (the system administrator) to easily set the eSuite
Workplace product as the default desktop. The eSuite Workplace (with or
without the IBM Network Station menu bar) can be selected through the IBM
Network Station Manager program by changing a setting in the
Startup
Menus
setup task. An IBM Network Station Series 1000 with 64 MB is
required to use Lotus eSuite Workplace. If the system that used to serve
eSuite Workplace to the IBM Network Station Series 1000s is an AS/400
system, it must have the following installed:
• OS/400 V4R2 OS/400 V4R2 or V4R3 & latest CUM Tape
• 5769-JV1 - AS/400 Developer Kit for Java
• 5648-C05 - IBM Network Station Manager Release 3.0
• PTF SF49066 (5769-SS1 V4R2 only) for Security enhancements
Additional installation information on Lotus eSuite Workplace can be found in
the
readme documents located on the Web site:

1.2.11 JVM 1.1.4 and JIT
In previous releases of IBM Network Station Manager for AS/400, a Java
Virtual Machine is included with Release 3. However, in this release of IBM
Network Station Manager for AS/400, an updated Java Virtual Machine (JVM
1.1.4) is included. To improve performance, the Just-In-Time (JIT) Compiler
allows an application's or applet's Java bytecode to be compiled as it is
downloaded into the IBM Network Station Series 1000. Currently, the JIT is
most effective in improving compute-intensive and string manipulation
operations.
1.2.12 NC Navigator Browser Enhancements
Previously, the browser was ordered and installed as a separate product.
However, in Release 3 of IBM Network Station Manager for AS/400, the NC
Navigator browser (40 bit encryption version) is
integrated into the base
product. This fully compatible subset of the popular Netscape Navigator 3.0
browser is an upgrade of the existing Navio NC Navigator browser currently
available. This new integrated 40 bit NC Navigator or the separate 128 bit NC
Navigator replaces the earlier Navio NC Navigator in Release 3 of the IBM
Network Station Manager. In fact, the earlier Navio NC Navigator (5648-B10
or 5648-B20) and the IBM Network Station browser (5648-B08 or 5648-B18)
will
not run with Release 3 of IBM Network Station Manager for AS/400.
