All workstations available for use to clients have the Access Controller component installed. The café administrator's workstation has the Administration Interface installed on it. When a client walks in wanting to surf the Net, read e-mail or simply type out a letter, they pay some money to the administrator for the time they think they'll need. Using the Administration Interface, the administrator issues a unique 6-character "access code" to the client. Access codes are generated by the Butterfly backend. Each access code carries the money paid, plus any extra (bonus) given by the administrator. Armed with an access code, a client can sit at any workstation, enter the access code into the Access Controller component and begin working. The Access Controller contacts the Butterfly server to authenticate the code, determine how much money (and, therefore, time) is left on the code and set up any firewall rules needed for the service requested. When the access code is used up, the Access Controller stops the timing process and the client can no longer use the workstation. The client can topup their credit at any time while working, or even seek a refund for time unused. Butterfly handles all this seamlessly. BNE USER MANUAL - 2
