The “OnLAN Messenger” service’s name comes from “Local area network (LAN) message exchange”. It underscores that OnLAN messenger is corporate-oriented (Enterprise) and corresponds with the needs of companies (and sister companies) for a safe, secure, convenient and controllable messaging solution.

 

 

OnLAN Messenger is a client-server multi-user application for message and file exchange. This product has been specially developed for use inside corporate networks (enterprise instant messaging), therefore its functions and settings are primarily focused on corresponding to the needs of companies of all levels for safe, secure, convenient and controllable instant messaging solution.

 

OnLAN Messenger service consists of three program modules:

Server part(details):

• OnLAN Server (server)
• OnLAN Monitor (monitor)

Client part(details):

• OnLAN Messenger (client)

OnLAN Server module supports different types of exchange between service clients, organizing access to the database. There are two types of administration: console and web-interface, with ability to separate administrators’ roles.

 

OnLAN Monitor module is a support module for OnLAN Server. It starts or stops server (automatically or manually) and provides server recovery if error occurred.

 

Both of these modules are system services and work in close contact with the server computer operating system core. They are installed on the same server computer, therefore the monitor is working in “local” mode. There’s also an opportunity to monitor server working from any computer in the company LAN in the remote mode.

 

Client part of OnLAN Messenger service consists of only one module OnLAN Messenger(client). It should be started on each machine that is connected to the messaging service.

 

All of the OnLAN Messenger service program modules have been developed for OS Windows (95-Vista) with minimal system requirements: Pentium 200 Mhz, RAM 64Mb, SVGA (256 colors 800х600), mouse.
