Get started

The Gateway Communication Driver acts as a communication protocol converter, to link clients and data sources that communicate using different protocols. The Gateway is hosted by the OI Server Manager, a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in, which is part of the Operations Control Management Console (OCMC) suite of utilities.

This user assistance publication covers only the information you need to configure and run the Gateway component. The documentation that accompanies the related components provide details on their operation. For a better understanding of this user guide, we recommend you to read the documentation for both the MMC and the Core. To read these documents in the OCMC, select Action and select the Help command from the menu. An Adobe Acrobat version of the Communication Drivers Pack Help is also available in the CD-ROM folder \User Docs\English.

Note: The shortcut menu items described in this document typically represent only a subset of any actual shortcut menu. Most items in each shortcut menu are standard Microsoft Windows or MMC-specific commands. For more information about those commands, see the MMC Help.
