Gateway Network Diagram
Gateway Network Diagram Overview​
The Gateway Network Diagram is a visual representation of your Gateway Network. You can access the Live Diagram tab by going to your Gateway webpage's Status tab > Connections > Gateway Network > Live Diagram.
If your 8.1 Gateway is connected to a 7.9 legacy Gateway, a banner will be displayed at the top of both the Gateway Network and Gateway Live Diagram pages, which warns that your 7.9 Gateway will not be able to communicate with your current Gateway, should it be upgraded from 8.1 to 8.3.
Gateway Network Diagram User Interface​

 | The Gateway node that the local Gateway is connected to. This icon's orange color also indicates that the connected node is running Standard Edition. |
 | The local node from which you are viewing the Gateway Network Diagram. This icon's green color also indicates that the node is running Edge Edition. |
 | The Gateway node that the local Gateway is connected to. This icon's green color also indicates that the connected node is running Edge Edition. |
 | The local node from which you are viewing the Gateway Network Diagram. The icon's multicolor also indicates that the node is running Maker Edition. |
 | The Gateway node that the local Gateway is connected to. The icon's multicolor also indicates that the connected node is running Maker Edition. |

Connection Details​
You can find out more information about each node and connection by clicking on them in the diagram. For example, clicking on the connection itself will display information such as:
- Connection Status
- Direction (Outgoing versus Incoming)
- Origin Gateway and Target Gateway
- Ping time in milliseconds
- Rates (Outgoing and Incoming bytes per second)
- Whether the connection is using SSL
- How many times the connection has faulted
If the connection is in another state besides Running, the Diagram will update accordingly:
Gateway Nodes​
On the other hand, clicking on the Gateway node itself will display information such as:
- Gateway Name
- Network Address
- Version
- Edition
If a Gateway in your Gateway Network is running Ignition version 8.1.24 or below, the Version and Edition fields will be N/A.
Redundancy Representation​
If two Gateways are part of a redundant pair, the diagram will show each Gateway node with an orange circle around it. In addition to the Gateway Name, Network Address, Version, and Edition, the Gateway Node will also display the Gateway's role in the redundant pair:
Proxy Connections​
The Gateway Network Diagram will also display proxy connections differently. Instead of a green arrow indicating status and direction, the connection will be grey with no direction indicator. Clicking on a proxy connection will give the following information:
- The status of the server
- Whether or not the two Gateways are using a Proxy connection
- Which Gateway the proxy is routed through
- The proxy connection's target Gateway
