Symantec pcAnywhere supports connections through Symantec pcAnywhere
Gateway or Symantec pcAnywhere Access Server. Symantec pcAnywhere Gateway

a firewall, router, or other Network Address Translation (NAT) device. It is included
on the Symantec pcAnywhere installation CD. Symantec pcAnywhere Access
Server is a stand-alone server that is purchased separately.
Symantec pcAnywhere can discover the gateway computers that are running on
