System Requirements

For a list of current operating system requirements, see Technical Note 2662.

New Features

This release includes the following new features and enhancements. For more information, see the INFOConnect Product Guide. For details, see the INFOConnect Enterprise Edition Product Guide.

• Windows 8.1 Update 1 Compatibility

  Earned Windows 8 logo via Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 test platforms.



• Microsoft Office 2013 Integration

  Use metering to track and report product usage from client workstations. EXTRA! Office integration features tested and supported with Microsoft Office 2013, 32- and 64-bit.



• Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2

  Added support for TLS 1.2. TLS 1.2 provides better security of data in motion with more secure confidentiality and integrity using AES GCM mode, SHA256 hashing and additional protocol protections.

  
  
• End-to-end security available for Unisys and IBM 3270 sessions

  Implemented Reflection Security Proxy End-to-End security for Unisys 2200, Unisys A Series and IBM TN3270 sessions. End-to-end security adds access control to your host systems and encrypts data all the way to host. Normally, the second half of the connection from Reflection Security Gateway to the host is in clear text. Two-factor authentication (2FA) with certificates and double encryption protects the data in motion better than ever before.

  
  
• Support for IBM Express Logon

  Reflection Security Proxy End-to-End security enables a Reflection TN3270 connection over a TLS-secured link that uses FIPS 140-2 validated encryption through the Attachmate Reflection Security proxy with token-passing, ultimately allowing Express Login Feature (ELF) on the IBM host while enforcing access control with Reflection Security Gateway.

  
  
• Reflection Certificate Manager

  The Reflection Certificate Manager is now available for managing digital certificates for EXTRA! 3270 sessions in the Reflection certificate store and configuring aspects of Reflection PKI support. INFOConnect can authenticate using digital certificates located in either the Windows certificate store or the Reflection certificate store (or both). The Reflection certificate store can be used for authentication during SSH and/or SSL/TLS sessions.

  
  
• Support for SHA-256 Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certificates

  Secure Shell connections now include SHA256 authentication values to support newer OpenSSH servers. You can configure the client to use SHA256 values for its authentication code and signature algorithm, or when sending hashed message authentication code (HMAC) values during the key exchange. You can find these settings on the Encryption tab of the Reflection Secure Shell Settings dialog box.

  
  
• Configurable Encryption Strength

  The encryption strength range is now adjustable for all transports.

  
  
• New Telnet Level Keepalive (NOP) for TCPA Transport

  This setting provides support for T27 emulation and T27 printer sessions that require a Telnet level keepalive (NOP). For configuration, see "Configure a Keepalive (NOP) for TCPA Transport" in the INFOConnect Product Guide.
