The following properties can be modified for the gateway.
Gateway - Select the Network Monitor gateway to be displayed on the map.

Position - Manually set the position of the gateway by specifying an X and Y coordinate.
Link Properties - Specify what happens when an operator clicks on the properties gateway from the Network Monitor dashboard.
Selecting No link causes nothing to happen when the gateway is clicked.
Selecting Link to gateway makes the gateway link to the specified gateway's information screen in Network Monitor.
Selecting Link to map makes the gateway link to another network map, enabling the creation of "drill-down" network maps.
