Chapter 4 Rendezvous Gateway : NAB and GP

NAB and GP
The Rendezvous gateway bridges between two types of networks:
Network Acceleration Blade LAN    (NAB LAN)  A local network on the network acceleration blade interface
General Purpose LAN    (GP LAN)  A local network on the general purpose interface
 
Correspondingly, it is helpful to distinguish between two types of Rendezvous client transports that can communicate through the gateway (and could not communicate without the gateway):
NAB Clients  are Rendezvous clients that connect to TIBCO Messaging Appliance P-7500 through a NAB port or LAG.
NAB clients take advantage of subject-based multicast in P-7500 hardware.
GP Transports  are Rendezvous transports that connect to an rvd on the GP LAN, or transports that use TIBCO Rendezvous® In-Process Module. Clients of a remote P-7500 (which is not a redundant partner) are also in this category.
GP transports use IP multicast capabilities of Rendezvous software.
