Chapter 1. Remote Control sessions overview 31
1.2.3 Session using a Remote Control Gateway
In the following sections we describe how Remote Control sessions are
established in a firewall environment using the Remote Control Gateway
component for both single-TMR and multi-TMR environments. As this technology
had been previously developed to allow Remote Control sessions in a firewall
environment before the Remote Control Proxy technology was announced, we
won’t go into details on this process, and no trace will be discussed.
Nevertheless, it could be interesting to have an idea of how it works to compare
and understand the two different technologies.
The Remote Control Gateway must be installed on top of a Tivoli Endpoint
Gateway. If you match the Remote Control Gateway port to your firewall
configurations, you enable all Controllers to access all the Targets that reside on
the other side of the firewall, through the same Remote Control Gateway.
Furthermore, the Remote Control Gateway can’t be used to bridge two different
LAN.
Data flow for RC Gateway/single-TMR session
Figure 1-4 shows in detail how a Remote Control session works using a Remote
Control Gateway in a single-TMR environment with firewall restrictions.
