Chapter 1
Application Gateway Overview
Note The Application Gateway 2000 runs on the IBM xSeries 306m
server. The IBM documentation that is shipped with the server
includes rack mounting instructions, physical specifications, safety
information, and operating and environmental information. The
Application Gateway 2000 is not user-serviceable, therefore the
IBM documentation that covers tasks such as opening the server
and replacing parts do not apply to the Application Gateway.
Defective Application Gateways should be returned to Nortel.
The Nortel Application Gateway 2000 delivers business
applications to the screens and speakers of Nortel IP
telephones, personal computers, and wireless devices such
as PDAs (personal digital assistants), wireless
Internet-enabled cell phones, wireless e-mail devices, and
pagers.
The applications delivered to Nortel IP Phones and other devices include
Nortel Voice Office applications, Nortel Guest Services, and transformed
business applications.
The location of an Application Gateway in a network is largely based on
the configuration of the existing network. The flexible deployment of the
Application Gateway enables you to connect it to application servers,
routers, firewalls, and switches. For information on integrating
Application Gateways into your network, refer to the Application Gateway
Network Integration Guide.
The following topics provide an overview to the physical components of
the Application Gateway:

•If the Application Gateway can access the connected device (router,
application server, etc.) from the same subnet as it receives client
requests, use one network cable. Connect Application Gateway
interface port 0 (ethernet 2) to your network. This is the typical
configuration.
•If the Application Gateway will straddle two networks, use two
network cables:
– Connect Application Gateway Interface 0 (ethernet 2) to the
client-side network.
– Connect Application Gateway Interface 1 (ethernet 1) to the
server-side network, directly or indirectly.
The two network interfaces are shown in Figure 4.
