4.4 Gateway: Editing configuration files
This chapter provides a detailed description of the structure and editing of the
gateway configuration files.
You can edit the files directly in the integrated web server or download the files,
edit them with a text editor (for example, Notepad++) and then upload them back to
the gateway.
Chapter 3.3 Correlation of the gateway configuration files provides you with an
overview of how the configuration files correlate.
4.4.1 Editing in the integrated web server
The following instructions describe how to edit the configuration files directly in the
integrated web server.
