1.6 Gateway Internal Database
The internal database is central to the functionality of the gateway. This database
is shared between all the ports on the gateway and is used as a conduit to pass
information from one device on one network to one or more devices on either
connected network. This permits data from devices on one communication port
or network to be viewed and controlled by devices on another port or network.
In addition to data from the Master and slave ports, status and error information
generated by the gateway can also be mapped into the internal database.
