What is the function of a gateway? 

Short Answer

Solution

As an entry and exit point between two separate networks, a gateway's main job in a computer network is to facilitate data flow and communication between them. Gateways connect networks that employ various technologies, topologies, or communication protocols. They facilitate smooth communication between various networks by translating protocols, addressing systems, or data formats as needed.
