This is available e.g. with LANCOM DSL/I-1611 Office and LANCOM DSL/I-10
Office in form of a DSL connection, which is realized via conventional copper
telephone lines. Furthermore, an ISDN connection with an adequate ISDN
router is available then, as well as
LANCAPI functions and dial-back up for
the Internet connection.
With these features a
LANCOM Office is ideally suited in particular for the
use with high-speed Internet connections. All workstations in the local net-
work of a company can access and use the services and contents of the World
Wide Web if the LAN is connected to the network of an Internet service pro-
vider
The router is integrated into the LAN like a conventional PC. All data, which
flows through the wiring of the network, reaches also the router. The router
decides independently then whether particular data must be transferred into
another network or not.
1.2 Typical applications
1.2.1 Internet in the LAN
In many enterprises grows the demand for an access to the Internet from all
workstations of the LAN. Online searches, e-mail and file transfer are only
some applications, which facilitate the PC-based work for the users.
