THE ACTIVATOR(tm) Advanced Internet Connectivity System
(C)opyright 1997 by R. Lee Heath All rights reserved.
Activator(tm) is a new original internet software product copyrighted,
using licensed patent pending processes, and under development by
R.Lee Heath.
Activator(tm) is a client/server model designed to manage PPP
connections to the Internet! The client is also a substantial
enhancement to DUN (Dial Up Networking) in Windows95 and NT4. The
Database/Server is designed to interact with the clients to enhance
the quality, security, monitoring, and centralized management and
accounting of PPP connections, even on multiple dialup servers, no
matter where they are located worldwide. This feature alone allows
ISPs to contract with each other for expanded services and putting
their systems or services up on a planetary access basis on the
internet!
It is also designed to selectively control loadup of 'PUSH' technology
for clients on the users end. All of this is performed via a unique
encrypted and secure client 'key' file produced by the Database/Server
by the ISP that, when placed on the client, fully automates access
controls and both the setup and login processes!
This frees the user from most setup hassles with a 'one click'
connectibility to the Internet, and it frees the ISP from many related
technical support, account security, and management expenses.
The Activator(tm) Database/Server continuously displays logged in users
regardless of their local login location worldwide and gives the ISP
user notification and disconnection or access control independent of
RAS Server or what ever PPP dialup server is used! The database is a
standard MS-Access database with fields for fully automating billing
by 'Rate Program' and 'Bill Date'. This frees the ISP to manage all of
his PPP dialup servers from just one location and do realtime connection
management, including instant disconnection of any user at any time
regardless of where he has connected worldwide.
The client and server also test the quality of the connection and
disconnects the user queing him to redial if the connection is very
poor. This can be used to address pertinent connection quality issues
if they exist. In addition, The client will automatically redial if
a disconnection occurs and it elimnates the need to regularly ping
a server to stay connected.
The Activator(tm) may be used for pure PPP dialup management or;
Activator(tm) is a 'PPP Gateway' TO Excalibur based systems making the
Excalibur Client 'PUSH' technology. When an 'Activator(tm) Account' is
established for a user, he clicks once, and Activator(tm) performs the
entire PPP and tcp/ip login process! This also breaks the 8-node barrier
of EIS16 servers enabling setup of an unlimited amount of nodes on any
one EIS16 server! The client makes use of standard Windows winsocks,
virtually eliminating existing gateway winsocks compatibilities and
throughput problems. Excalibur may also be used for primary installation
of the Activator(tm) client and related keys and scripts.
There are already, and in the future will be, a host of unique and
exclusive connectivity management features for both conventional ISPs
and those expanding the capabilities of their Excalibur Information
Server online systems!
System Requirements:
Client: Windows95 or NT4
Server: Windows95 or NT4 (NT4 recommended)
