If your server's and your target's IP addresses are in two different
networks (as determined by their respective IP addresses and the uset
network mask) then you do need a gateway, and it mut have an IP
address in the network where your target is (otherwise the target
cannot talk to it).

If you put both the server and the target in the same network then no
gateway i sneeded. In this case "gatewayip" should be unset.

Best regards,
