&#8216;co-location&#8217;, used of a machine you own that is physically
sited on the premises of an ISP in order to take advantage of the ISP's
direct access to lots of network bandwidth. Often in the phrases <span class="firstterm">co-lo box</span> or <span class="firstterm">co-lo
machines</span>. Co-lo boxes are typically web and FTP servers
remote-administered by their owners, who may seldom or never visit the
actual site.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="clustergeeking.html">Prev</a><EFBFBD></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../C.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"><EFBFBD><a accesskey="n" href="coaster.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">clustergeeking<EFBFBD></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"><EFBFBD>coaster</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
