Basic Usage

  • This feature helps share Journal/Documents/Mounted-Drives' entries across XOs, via the following two mechanisms ::


    • Peer-to-Peer mode
      • Sharing in this mode is possible, only when the server and client XO(s) are on the same networks. Thus, peer-to-peer sharing would work on
        • XOs connected to the same Access Point.
        • Adhoc-Network connections.


    • Via School-Server
      • In this mode, an XO uploads an entry to the central School Server; from where the client XO(s) may download the entry.
      • This mode of sharing works as long as the School-Server is HTTP-pingable between the server and client XOs. Thus, this mode of sharing would work when
        • XOs are connected to the same Access Point (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
        • XOs are connected to the different Access Points (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
        • XOs are conencted to Adhoc-Network (as long as school-server is pingable throughout).
