Application Gateway Hardware Installation Guide

If the Application Gateway can access the connected device (router,

application server, etc.) from the same subnet as it receives client

requests, use one network cable. Connect Application Gateway

interface port 0 (ethernet 2) to your network. This is the typical

configuration.

If the Application Gateway will straddle two networks, use two

network cables:

Connect Application Gateway Interface 0 (ethernet 2) to the

client-side network.

Connect Application Gateway Interface 1 (ethernet 1) to the

server-side network, directly or indirectly.

The two network interfaces are shown in
