Figure 2. Company LAN without a File Server
In the above example, there are three PCs with FastTrak cards connected to the
company’s LAN, the same as before. But this network has no file server, so the
PAM Message Server runs on one of the networked PCs. PAM Monitoring Utility
runs on both networked PCs. If this LAN were upgraded with a suitable router
and an Internet connection, you could set up offsite monitoring as in Figure 1.
