Gateway (and Router)

A Gateway is the transfer device that passes data between 
networks. A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to 
another network and sends data transmitted via the network to an 
exact destination. The router knows where to direct data that 
arrives at the gateway. If a destination is located at an external 
network, the router transmits data to the external network. If your 
network communicates with other networks, you may need to 
configure the Gateway IP address. If you do not know the Gateway 
IP address then contact your Network Administrator.
