Chapter 5. Introducing a peer-to-peer connection
Access Connections v.4.1 provides a new, task-oriented way of connecting that is
not based on using a location profile. This is a quick peer-to-peer connection
established between users, or peers, by creating the temporary work group by use
of wireless LAN device with secure file transfer feature.
Preparing the peer-to-peer connection
If you have enabled an Internet firewall, a peer-to-peer connection cannot be
established unless a user with administrator privilege has created an exception rule.
If you do not have this privilege, ask the computer administrator to change the
firewall settings for you.
