Gateway (and router)

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.
