Local Area Connection

A local area network is a computer network covering a small geographic area, like a home, office, ships. Current LANs are most likely to be based on switched IEEE 802.3 Ethernet technology, running at 10, 100 or 1,000 Mbit/s, or on IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi technology. Each node or computer in the LAN has its own computing power but it can also access other devices on the LAN subject to the permissions it has been allowed. These could include data, processing power, and the ability to communicate or chat with other users in the network.

On a LAN, we expect to share files, programs, or printers, all without being particularly aware of where the physical resources we're using are actually located. LANs providing these types of services are typically set up either as "peer-to-peer" or "client-server" LANs, or perhaps as a combination of the two.

Emailing Client that we offer may be used on several workstations in a local area network (LAN). In case additional accounts are installed, this means, that all different users could theoretically access an own mailbox from their PC, as long as it is connected to the LAN. For this purpose, Our Emailing software can be easily configured on the PC connected to the satcom terminal to meet the required of multiple users. The other workstations will be connected by simply creating a link via the connection to PC connected to Satcom terminal and there goes an access of an own mailbox.

When using subaccounts, we recommend to leave the PC connected to Satcom on at all times in order to ensure internal e-mails (between subaccounts) to be delivered instantly. Internal e-mails may be sent and received free of charge, using the full local e-mail addresses including the subaccount names.
