Configuring gateways

Gateways are fundamental components that act as entry points for accessing resources on a private network. The PingOne Privilege agent connects to a private gateway to establish a secure session. A gateway deployed in a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), for example, can provide access to all resources within that VPC and any connected VPCs.

The PingOne Privilege controller intelligently determines the optimal gateway path to connect a user with a resource, ensuring efficient and secure access.

To ensure high availability, we recommend deploying at least two gateways per network.

PingOne Privilege supports different types of gateways depending on your environment. As an administrator, you can configure the following:

AWS Gateways: Choose this option if you are deploying gateways within an Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment. This process is streamlined for AWS.
Private Gateways: Choose this option for non-AWS environments, such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure, or your own on-premises data centers.
