About the Collaboration Server

The collaboration server is a communication program responsible for managing collaboration sessions, and delivering all contents, via TCP/IP networks, to all members.

The collaboration server can run on a local computer of one of the session members, or as part of an existing TerraGate server. When a collaboration server is activated, using the Start Local Session request, it serves the current session on a local machine and after the termination of the session the server shuts down. When the collaboration server is set up as part of the TerraGate server it is always up and running and can server several sessions.

Note:    For further information on setting and controlling a collaboration service on a TerraGate server, see the TerraGate User Manual.
