WebGate is designed to be a highly modular application. This design allows WebGate's modules to be run across multiple computers. The following installation information covers installation of WebGate on a single computer. For information on installing and running WebGate across multiple computers, please refer to the section titled 'Advanced Installation'.
In a WebGate Server installation, the following modules are installed:
WebGate Manager - This is the control module for WebGate. It is constantly running in the background whenever the WebGate application is running. It monitors, starts, and stops the other WebGate modules.
WebGate Scheduler - This module processes all messages sent by WebGate. It manages scheduled and repeating messages, in addition to scheduling the delivery of each message by a dialer.
WebGate Dialers - The dialers are responsible for the actual delivery of the messages to a paging carrier(s).
WebGate Interfaces - These modules (GetMail & GetWeb) accept messages from various sources, into the WebGate application.
WebGate Admin - The administration program is used to setup, control, and maintain the WebGate application.
WebGate Monitor - The monitoring application allows for real-time monitoring of the WebGate application from the local machine, or from any other workstation that is connected to the paging server via TCP/IP.
