Local Services

Local Services are those services that a Bluetooth server is capable of providing.
The services provided by Bluetooth Software are:

•

Bluetooth Serial Port

•

Dial-Up Networking

•

Fax

•

File Transfer

•

Information Exchange

•

Information Synchronization

•

Network Access

The names of all the services are displayed even though the server may not be
capable of supporting all services. For example, when a server provides a service
that is hardware-dependent, that server must be capable of local action, i.e., a Dial-
up Networking server must have a working modem, a Fax server must have a
functional fax modem, and a Network Access server must be physically connected
to the Local Area Network.
All services start automatically by default when Bluetooth Software is initialized.
Automatic start-up can be turned off for individual services (Go to Bluetooth
Configuration Panel >Local Services tab > double-click the service name.) If a
service is not configured to start automatically it can still be started manually (right-
click the service and select Start from the pop-up menu).

Stop a local service

Right-click the service and select Stop from the pop-up menu. Stopped services are
not available for use by clients.
With Local Device selected, the Details view of Explorer provides basic information
about each local service:
