Gateway Profiles

Enhance network security and management with Gateway Profiles. Configure routing, NAT, VPN, QoS, and access control for efficient and secure communication. Monitor traffic, forward logs, and optimize gateway performance using various profile types.


A gateway profile is typically associated with the configuration of a network gateway by way of a device that connects different networks and routes traffic between them. Gateway profiles are used to manage the behavior and functionality of network gateways, ensuring efficient and secure communication between different parts of the network. These profiles generally apply to the following protective methods:

  • Routing Policies

  • Network Address Translation (NAT)

  • Virtual Private Network (VPN) Settings

  • Quality of Service (QoS)

  • Authentication and Access Control

These profiles are generally applied to either a Multicloud Defense Gateway or a VPN tunnel that is associated with a gateway.
