Overview

WebSphere Partner Gateway uses gateways to route documents to their proper destination. The recipient can be a community participant or the Community Manager.

Figure 34. Gateways to Community Manager and participants
This figure shows three gateways--one for sending documents to a participant and two for sending documents to the Community Manager back-end system

The outbound transport protocol determines which information is used during gateway configuration.

The following transports are supported (by default) for participant gateways:

You can also specify a user-defined transport, which you upload during the creation of the gateway.

As the Hub Admin, you can set up the gateways for your participants, or the participants can perform this task themselves. In this chapter, you will see how to perform the task for the participants.
