A Bluetooth
®
personal area network is a private, temporary, ad-hoc
network of up to eight (8) devices. A Bluetooth
®
personal area
network allows you to easily exchange information that normally
requires a TCP/IP network. Most chat utilities, multi-player games,
etc. are fully functional in a Bluetooth
®
personal area network
environment.
Bluetooth
®
private area networks are subject to the same security
settings (service availability, authorisation, authentication, and
encryption) that govern other Bluetooth
®
communications.
One Bluetooth
®
device must be the host of the personal area
network. Other Bluetooth
®
devices join the network as clients. The
host can accept and reject clients on an individual basis.
