In the context of the network, what is a Gateway? |
|
Answer» A gateway is indeed a hardware device that functions as a gate across networks, such as a firewall, server, or router. It enables data or TRAFFIC to TRAVEL between networks. A gateway is a node that sits at the network's edge and PROTECTS the rest of the network's nodes. Before entering or LEAVING the network, all data must pass through the gateway node. A gateway can also convert data from the outside network into something like a protocol or format that all internal network devices can COMPREHEND. |
