Managing Content Gateway connections

Use the Settings > General > Content Gateway Access page to review configuration and status information for Content Gateway instances associated with the current Policy Server, or to launch the Content Gateway manager for a selected instance.

When a Content Gateway instance is registered with a Policy Server, the Content Gateway Access page is automatically updated with IP address, hostname, and status information for that Content Gateway. This information appears in one of 3 tables:

  • If the Content Gateway is part of a cluster, a table is displayed with the cluster name as its title. All Content Gateway instances in the cluster are listed. If there are multiple clusters, multiple tables will appear.
  • If the Content Gateway is not clustered, it is shown in the Unclustered Content Gateway instances table.
  • If Policy Server cannot communicate with a Content Gateway instance, it appears in the Not Responding table. This table is only displayed when Policy Server cannot communicate with a registered Content Gateway instance.

To launch the Content Gateway manager for any listed instance, click the corresponding link in the IP Address column of the table. Note that use of this link may require disabling the browser’s popup blocker.

To update the description of an instance, to make it easier to manage Content Gateway connections, mark the radio button next to an instance IP address and click Edit Description.

If a Content Gateway instance appears in the Not Responding table because the instance has been uninstalled or relocated, mark the radio button next to the instance name and click Delete.

After editing Content Gateway descriptions or deleting obsolete entries, click OK to cache your changes. Changes are not implemented until you click Save and Deploy.
