Note The SDT Connector client can be configured with unlimited number of Gateways. Each Gateway can be
configured to port forward to an unlimited number of locally networked Hosts. Similarly there is no limit on the
number of SDT Connector clients who can be configured to access the one Gateway. Nor are there limits on the
number of Host connections that an SDT Connector client can concurrently have open through the one Gateway
tunnel.
However there is a limit on the number of SDT Connector SSH tunnels that can be open at the one time on a
particular Gateway. SD4001/40022/4008 and CM4001/4008 devices support at least 10 simultaneous client
tunnels; ACM5000, ACM5500, IM4216/4248 and CM4116/4148 each support at least 50 such concurrent
connections. So for a site with a CM4116 gateway you can have, at any time up to 50 users securely controlling
an unlimited number of network attached computers and appliances (servers, routers etc) at that site.
