<p style="text-align:justify">Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) is a technique for connecting numerous computers in a LAN to the Internet using a single connection and IP address. ICS often uses NAT technologies to do this and is compatible with a wide range of connection types, including DSL, cable, ISDN, dial-up, and satellite. The device with the modem or broadband interface that connects to the Internet is known as the ICS host, or gateway. The other devices that connect to the Internet via the network and the ICS host are known as ICS clients. If the ICS host fails, all of the ICS clients lose Internet access.</p>
