Apple IP (AppleShare IP) Gateway - Manual (Page 9)

The Apple IP Gateway provides Macintosh computers on an AppleTalk
network access to services on an Internet Protocol (IP) network—even if the
computers themselves are on an AppleTalk system that does not directly
support IP. Thus the gateway is particularly useful for Macintosh computers
connected by LocalTalk cabling or through Apple Remote Access.
The Apple IP Gateway can be installed on a wide range of Macintosh
computers. It can be used on its own or in conjunction with an Apple Remote
Access MultiPort or Personal Server or with the Apple Internet Router. This
chapter gives an overview of how the gateway works and explains the various
options for its use.
