Application Gateway Network Integration Guide
The Application Gateway administration interface includes a variety of
standard Linux monitoring applications to help you understand the
networking from the Application Gateway to other devices. The
monitoring applications include My traceroute, the Ethereal Network
Analyzer, and xNetTools.

recommend that you review the Pre-Installation Checklist that is provided
with the Application Gateway. The checklist includes information such as
the following:
The software release requirements for your phone system.
•
A list of all incoming and outgoing ports required to be open for
•
Application Gateway usage.
A list of all information that must be collected before Application
•
Gateway installation, including the IP address and port numbers of
connected devices such as LDAP servers and call servers.
