About Symantec pcAnywhere Gateway
Symantec pcAnywhere Gateway facilitates the process of finding and connecting
to host computers that are behind a firewall, router, or other Network Address
Translation (NAT) device.
It automatically discovers the pcAnywhere hosts that are running on the same
subnet on which the pcAnywhere Gateway service is running. You can broaden
the search to include additional subnets. Symantec pcAnywhere Gateway allows
up to five simultaneous TCP/IP active sessions and one active modem session.
Remote users can connect to a gateway computer, view the hosts that have been
discovered by the gateway, and then connect to an available host. For remote
users to connect to the host computers that are behind a NAT device, you must
open the ports on your NAT device to allow incoming connections.
Figure 14-1 shows how connections are made through pcAnywhere Gateway.
