Starting and stopping the gateway

You start and stop the Apple IP Gateway from the Gateway Manager program.
To start the gateway:

1

Open the Gateway Manager program.

The Gateway Information window opens.

2

Click Start or choose Start Gateway from the Control menu.

The gateway automatically begins to run. You can see the level of activity
from the Gateway Information window. The information in the window is
discussed later in the next section, “Monitoring the Gateway.”

IMPORTANT

It is not necessary to keep the Gateway Manager open while the

gateway is running. If you want to close the Gateway Manager, choose Quit
from the File menu. This does not stop the gateway. If the Gateway Manager is
shut down, the gateway may be running, but there is no visible sign of it. If you
want to make sure that the gateway is running, open the Gateway Manager. The
text next to the Stop/Start button will confirm the gateway’s status.

To stop the gateway:

1

Open the Gateway Manager program.

2

Click Stop or choose Stop Gateway from the Control menu.
