Ship-Shore Data Communication IP Airtime Control

IP Airtime Control and Access Control [Cost Control]

Dualog DuaCore Pro

Dualog® DuaCore Pro™ is a Connection Suite software Extension that keeps control of the network traffic when using IP-based communication systems like FleetBroadband, OpenPort and VSAT. The control is performed from the Company Office because the ship software is configured from shore. There is no need for a dedicated firewall box on board.

The company administrator can set up restrictions in order to block, restrict or open different IP-based services like email, web surfing, MSN, Facebook, Skype, file downloads etc per individual user, user groups or computer(s) on the ship.

Another important feature is the ability to handle automatic failover from one IP-carrier, e.g. VSAT to a different IP-carrier, e.g. FleetBroadband. When doing so, DuaCore Pro can change the rules regarding user access in order to save cost. This is an important feature for ships using VSAT as their main system and Fleet Broadband as the backup system.
