Memory Structure

In contrast to the connection as shown in the link, the gateway buffers are handled differently. Here, the buffers are not mirrored by default. You can explicitly access both memory areas of the respective GW.

Simple example.

Use cases

  • Connectivity

  • Convert Protocol A to B, or A to A (Both GW do not necessarily have to be different. They can both support the same protocol.)

Memory Structure

each gateway has its own memory. This may vary depending on the gateway. If two gateways are plugged together, the buffer on both sides is automatically configured to have the same size as the gateway with the smallest memory.

The memory on both GWs is mirrored for each action so that it is not necessary to decide which GW to write to. This means that when a cell is written to, it will be done on both sides.
