Program Start by GatewayLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

Because a Gateway cannot start an RFC server program with remote shell on another machine via SAProuter, it is necessary to install a Gateway on a machine in the network where the RFC server program will be run. It should be the same machine for a better performance.

One or more SAProuters can be used. The following example shows

  • two different networks with two SAProuters and

  • how an RFC server program can be started by an Gateway and how it communicates with an SAP system running on another network.
