Zusammenfassung:A communication portal coupled with a processing system and a host having a first resource. The processing system has a second resource addressable by a terminal using a predetermined communication protocol. The communication portal receives a first communication from a terminal identifying the first resource. In response, the communication portal identifies the second resource, stores a data record associating the first resource and the second resource, and provides a response to the first communication to identify the second resource. The terminal then uses the communication protocol adapted for the second resource as a way to request an operation on the first resource. The portal communicates with the processing system to identify a request for an operation on the second resource and in response, communicates with the host to perform a second operation on the first resource based on the stored data record associating the first resource and the second resource.
