We have an elaborate remote logon architecture that requires VTAM for
logins. It was designed with our dozens of z/OS LPARs in mind, and is
the only *security-approved* logon access method for z/OS and z/VM.
Telnet, even SSL, is no longer allowed in and out of our networks due to
DOD port restrictions. I also use VTAM for SNANJE connections since I
have it (along with the RSCS Communications feature).
