The LAN mode is a state in which the aLobby is used in a limited, local network. This mode was originally developed solely for this purpose. Today (in 2019) it is no longer used. However, the option still exists. However, its functionality cannot be guaranteed due to the constant further development of the aLobby. It has proved to be practical to use the aLobby itself on LANs in online mode, which is very easy thanks to the VPN connection offered.
