Workshop
ELSA LANCOM Business

Example:
Let's take a small engineering office with two work places (a branch office of a larger
planning office) as an example. There is a fax device and an answering machine and
each of the two work places has a telephone.
The two employees in this office use the following functions of the
ELSA LANCOM
Business:
쮿
They were able to setup their access to the Internet through a provider in a flash
with the
ELSA LANconfig and its wizards. This function uses the IP router.
쮿
Data exchange with the head office takes place via a LAN-to-LAN connection using
the functions of the IPX router.
쮿
To send fax messages directly from the PC they use
ELSA-RVS-COM via the
LANCAPI.
Of course, the office in this chapter's example also needs to make connections as cheaply
as possible when faxing, accessing the Internet or exchanging data with head office. The
least-cost router which automatically searches for the cheapest connection for every call
is used for this purpose. You will find information about rates in magazines, brochures
or on the Internet, for example.
Our example office is located in Glasgow and it has a telephone account with British
Telecom. The following entries on the least-cost router have been compiled according
to these local circumstances and based on information on zones and rates from the
Internet.
Please note that you cannot necessarily apply these entries to different situations, they
should only serve as an example.
