How to create a Gateway server (to allow 'Classic' client to use 'controller' (formely known as 't=controller') parameter) when using Cognos Analytics

How To


Summary

Customer would like to configure their architecture so that user's IBM Cognos Controller 'classic' clients (the program CCR.EXE) do not connect directly to the main IBM Cognos Controller application server. Instead they connect to a separate 'gateway' server.
- In other words, they want to achieve something similar to what is described inside separate IBM technote #386373.

How can they achieve this, when using Cognos Analytics?
