devicetogateway
Device to Gateway is a concept in computer networking that describes the communication path from an end-user device, such as a smartphone, laptop, or smart home sensor, to a gateway device. This gateway acts as an intermediary, translating and routing data between the local network where the end device resides and a larger network, typically the internet.
In many home and small office networks, the wireless router serves as the device to gateway connection.
The role of the gateway in the device to gateway path is crucial for security and management.
