“Eicon Technology, a leading worldwide provider of Internet
access products, today announced the forthcoming release of its
EiconCardConnections for Linux software. This complete WAN
communications software program for use with Eicon’s family of WAN
cards providestotal wide area network (WAN) connectivity for a wide
range of Linux-based applications, such as Web Servers, Thin Server
Appliances or the new generation of Linux-based embedded systems.
The first version supports Red Hat Linux.”
“EiconCard Connections for Linux, combined with an
EiconCard, provides the wide area communications needs for an
easy-to-use, low-cost, and easy-to-manage communications
server. The flexibility of the EiconCard, when combined with
this software, provides powerful IP Routing over various WAN
protocols, making itideal for applications such as Web Servers or
Thin Server Appliances. In addition, many Linux-based embedded
systems, such as point-of-sales, can use the X.25 connectivity
built into the EiconCard Connections for Linux.”
“WAN connectivity is a natural need for users of Linux,” said
Ken Gingrich, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales &
Marketing Operations for Eicon. “One potential application is for
users of Linux-powered thin servers to use EiconCards to connect
corporate Web Servers to the Internet or Intranet.”
