What is the GVI?
The Gateway Virtual Interface (GVI) provides a management application transparent proxy interface on the Ranger Gateway. This interface allows management applications to make SNMP, SSH, and ICMP requests directly to devices. Unknown to the application, these requests are securely proxied by the Ranger Gateway through the ZoneRanger to the managed devices. This greatly simplifies integration between the ZoneRanger and many diverse management applications. The GVI is available on Solaris, Linux, and Windows Ranger Gateway installations.
