Connections - Gateway Network

The Gateway Network Status page is designed to give a quick overview of the status of all Gateways within the Gateway Network. If a Gateway connection is faulted, the status message in red can be selected to see the error that pertains to why it is faulted. Any Gateway connections with a status of 'Connected' can be drilled into by clicking the Details button to the right. On the Details page, metrics for the selected Gateway connection are displayed, giving an idea of the rate of data transfer between the two Gateways, as well as a list of recent connection events.

This page gives a general overview of the Connections - Gateway Network webpage. See the Gateway Network Connection Details page for more in-depth information.

New in 8.1.25

The Gateway Network Status page also has a tab which visualizes data about your Gateway Network. See the Gateway Network Diagram page for more information.
