-A **Gateway** normally works at the Transport and Session ​layers ​of the [[ddsf:private:cookbook:​06_append:​glossary:​o:​osi]]. At the Transport layer and above, there are numerous protocols and standards from different vendors; gateways are used to deal with them. Gateways provide translation between networking technologies such as Open System Interconnection (OSI) and [[ddsf:private:cookbook:​06_append:​glossary:​t:​tcp|Transmission Control Protocol]]/​[[ddsf:​private:cookbook:​06_append:​glossary:​i:​ip|Internet Protocol]] (TCP/IP). Because of this, gateways connect two or more autonomous networks, each with its own routing algorithms, protocols, [[ddsf:private:cookbook:​06_append:​glossary:​n:​nettopo|topology]],​ domain name service, and network administration procedures and policies.+A **Gateway** normally works at the [[ddsf:​public:​guidebook:​06_append:​glossary:​t:​transportlayer|Transport]] and [[ddsf:​public:​guidebook:​06_append:​glossary:​s:​sessionlayer|Session ​Layers]] ​of the [[ddsf:public:guidebook:​06_append:​glossary:​o:​osi]].

-Gateways perform all of the functions of [[ddsf:private:cookbook:​06_append:​glossary:​r:​router|routers]] and more. In fact, a router with added translation functionality is a gateway. The function that does the translation between different network technologies is called a protocol converter.+Gateways perform all of the functions of [[ddsf:public:guidebook:​06_append:​glossary:​r:​router|routers]] and more.
