Nicola, You better find a course on mainframe basics.
A mainframe is a large machine with dozens or hundreds of applications and hundreds or many thousands users. You don't logon to a mainframe, you logon to an application running on it. All applications are different and serve their own purpose. Mainframes run business-critical applications and are highly secured, so you probably won't find a publically accessable one.
