Methods of communication
Netview FTP is IBM's standard software for file transfer between IBM mainframe computers using operating systems MVS, VM and VSE. In addition, Netview FTP is available for AS/400, AIX (UNIX) and OS/2.
Connection is via an SNI link through one of the following:
| Fixed line | |
| X.25 (Datapack) | PVC (fixed line), SVC (dial-up); "Switched Subarea Dial" |
| SNIX | Service offered by Tele2 for SNI via Token Ring |
| Via a third-party network | Such as the IBM network |
If teletransfer takes place via a fixed line, this must be obtained from Telia before it can be configured by BGC.
Methods of anti-tampering protection
For security reasons, all files containing payment orders which are sent to BGC must be equipped with electronic anti-tampering protection – also called an electronic seal. Approved method is Nexus Electronic Signature. Your communication software will often include an electronic anti-tampering protection feature.
