A Gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network. On the network, a node
or stopping point can be either a gateway node or a host (end-point) node. Both the computers
of Internet users and the computers that serve pages to users are host nodes. The computers
that control traffic within your company's network or at your local Internet service provider (ISP)
are gateway nodes.
NOTE: The "Gateway Set" address used is an example ONLY . This information is obtained
through the IT / MIS Department.
