2.3.7 Communications used in a WAN

When using a WAN with JP1/AJS3, make sure you use them in a communications environment with secure communications and stable communication lines.

You can ensure secure communications in a communications environment by, for example, using a VPN.

If a communication line is unstable, job delays or errors whose causes are hard to identify might occur. To prevent such problems, use a communication line that has a stable data transfer rate.

We do not recommend using a network for which you are charged based on the amount of time or amount of data.

If you do use a WAN environment for which you are charged based on the amount of time or amount of data, you can reduce communication costs by, for example, disabling KeepAlive (which requires a continuous connection that checks connectivity with the destination) in the environment settings. Setting devices such as routers to disconnect automatically when inactivity is detected will also reduce costs.
