3.6.8 Network Access
The Bluetooth Network Access service makes it possible for a remote Bluetooth device
to access a Local Area Network that is physically attached to this computer or allows a
remote device to become part of an ad hoc network provided by this computer.
After this computer has been configured to provide the Network Access service to other
Bluetooth devices, it will not be able to use the Bluetooth Network Access service
provided by another Bluetooth device without being re-configured. Put another way, this
computer cannot be both a Bluetooth Network Access server and a Bluetooth Network
Access client at the same time.
