Configuring the connection with the Z controller through a gateway

You can configure that one or more z-centric agents connect with the controller through a gateway, by defining the gateway properties in the ROUTOPTS statement.

On the controller, set the gateway properties in the ROUTOPTS statement:
  1. Define one or more gateway destinations as follows:
    ROUTOPTS GATEWAY(destination, ...,destination)
    Each destination has the following syntax: 
    gateway name:'IP address or hostname'/gateway ID
    where:
    gateway name
    The unique name assigned to the gateway. You can specify up to 8 alphanumerical characters.
    IP address or hostname
    The fully qualified host name or IP address used to communicate with the gateway. It can be up to 56 alphanumeric characters.
    gateway ID
    The unique identifier of the z-centric agent gateway that was specified by the -gwid parameter at installation time. It can be up to 32 characters.
  2. In the HTTP|HTTPS parameter specify the gateway name that you defined, as follows: 
    dest name:zc agent ID/gateway name
The following example shows a ROUTOPTS statement: 
ROUTOPTS GATEWAY(GATEW1:’10.11.12.13’/GW1,GATEW2:’111.222.333.444’/GW2)                               1
HTTP(ZCENT1:1234567890QWERTYUIOPASDFGHJKLZXC/GATEW2,ZCENT2:QWERTYUIOPASDFGHJKLZXCVBNM123456/GATEW2)   2
HTTPS(ZCENT3:1QAZXSW223EDCVFR45RGHT5YY23498E1/GATEW1)                                                 3
where:
1
Two gateway destinations, GATEW1 and GATEW2, are configured.
2
The z-centric agents ZCENT1 and ZCENT2 connect with the controller through gateway GATEW2.
3
The z-centric agent ZCENT3 connects with the controller through gateway GATEW1, in an SSL-secure connection.
