  -> Thanks!
neutral  xxxCMJ_Trans: this has nothing to do with actual physical areas. "Bereich" refers to "fields" or "sectors" ADDED: Who mentioned computers? This is talking about port connections and they mean that type of business or traffic. Area just doesn't fit with the rest anyway

  -> I disagree. We are not talking about computers but about a physical space (area)
