The LAN Modem Solution/Proxy Solution
Real Image offers you network connectivity solutions
for all your necessary corporate needs – we connect
your entire network to the internet enabling every user
in the office to check email and browse the Web simultaneously.
HOW IT WORKS
The multi-user LAN Modem/Proxy solutions are powerful
networking solutions. They provide corporate businesses
and their branch offices a complete networking, fax,
phone and data communications system in one box or software.
This solution is easy to install, use and maintain.
-Whenever any workstation on the network requires access
to the Internet, the LAN modem/proxy server will automatically
dial the Real Image POP and establish a link to the
Internet. This is called Dial on Demand.
From that moment, every machine on the LAN/Proxy can
access the Internet simultaneously.
If one of the workstations has not made use of the
Internet connection for a configurable period of time
(usually two or three minutes), the connection is terminated
automatically by the LAN modem/Proxy Server.
The LAN modem/Proxy server will then connect automatically
when needed.
This solution uses a Proxy System with ISDN Dial on
Demand, which accommodate multiple users for simultaneous
Internet connectivity with telephone line and one modem.
To implement this system one of your workstations or
server will be designated as a Proxy Server. The workstation
or server will be used for its normally assigned tasks.
Whenever any workstation on the Network requires access
to the internet, the Proxy Server will use the ISDN
Hub to automatically dial the Real Image Internet POP,
and establish a link to the Internet.
From that moment, every machine on the LAN can access
the Internet simultaneously.
BENEFITS
- Security, the LAN modem/Proxy server does not accept
incoming calls, this way excluding any possibility
of unauthorised external access
- Routing – the LAN modem integrates a hardware
router; therefore reducing speed connectivity is minimal
regardless of the number of simultaneous users
- Automatic Dial up, launch the Internet browser or
e-mail application and you are on line. No more dial-up
networking.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What does the ISDN LAN Modem/Proxy Server do for
me?
A: Real Image’s ISDN LAN Modem and Proxy solution
allows you to share Internet access through a single
ISDN/Proxy connection. This is much more cost effective
than using multiple ISDN/Proxy lines for multiple PCs.
Q: Can I use the ISDN LAN/Proxy for simultaneous voice
and data transfer?
A: Yes, the ISDN LAN modem can be configured to
allow both voice and data simultaneously so that you
can make that important call whilst still maintaining
Internet access.
Q: Will I be able to connect if I'm not set on the
network?
A: No, you will not be able to connect, you will
only connect if you are set on a network.
Q: Is there a limit on the number of users we can have
on the network dial up?
A: LAN Modem takes a maximum of 10 users, the more
users you have the lesser the chances of getting a faster
and better connection.
We strongly recommend a Leased Line connection for over
10 users, this allows more users and a stable connection.
Q: Why is it necessary to be set on a network as opposed
to normal dial up connection?
A: It is ideal for corporate Internet sharing and
businesses with a set up of more than two users and
more.
Q: What speed will I be connecting at if I'm set on
a network dial up?
A: This depends on the type of LAN modem you are
using; Analog LAN modem gives you a speed of 56k, ISDN
LAN modem at 64k and 128k.
