IVT Terminal Emulator
IVT Terminal Emulator is a highly configurable communications program by BearStar Software. It is a tool used when connecting to other computers, bulletin board systems (BBSs), and a host of other Internet-related services. IVT supports scripting.
IVT is designed to emulate various types of text terminal. It supports SSH-2, Kerberized telnet, RLOGIN, NETBIOS and SERIAL protocols. Besides TELNET and SSH, it can be configured to make a connection through a modem or directly over a serial port. Various serial parameters are configurable such as:
- Baud Rate
- Parity (odd, even, none)
- Stop bits
- Flow Control
IVT supports various terminal protocols such as VT100 (ANSI X3.64). It also supports various forms of file transfer protocols such as ASCII, XMODEM, YMODEM, and ZMODEM.
IVT is available in 2 versions: a free and a non-free version. The non-free version, which incorporates code from PuTTY is secure. The PuTTY-code is used for implementing SSH-capabilities.
