Creating a Cluster Gateway when You Control Only One Side
 
Defining One Side of a Cluster Gateway Pair
Specifying which Documents the Cluster Gateway Can Forward and Receive
When you configure a cluster gateway that crosses administrative domains (such as between two companies), you might not control Brokers in both the clusters that make up the gateway pair. In this case, you must create and configure the gateway in your cluster, and the administrator of the Brokers in the other cluster must create and configure the gateway in the remote cluster.
To do this, you and the administrator of the other cluster must each perform the following steps:
1. Create the cluster gateway for your cluster as described in Defining One Side of a Cluster Gateway Pair. You will need the following information from the other administrator.
*The exact name of the remote cluster
*The names of Brokers in his/her cluster (remote cluster)
*The names of the Broker Servers on which the Brokers reside
2. Configure the list of document types that your cluster gateway can exchange with the remote cluster as described in Specifying which Documents the Cluster Gateway Can Forward and Receive.
