# Channel Access PV Gateway
The [EPICS](https://epics-controls.org) Channel Access PV Gateway is both a
Channel Access server and Channel Access client.
It provides a means for many clients to access a process variable,
while making only one connection to the server that owns the process variable.
It also provides additional access security beyond that on the server.
It thus protects critical servers while providing possibly restricted access
to needed process variables.
The Gateway typically runs on a machine with multiple network cards,
and the clients and the server may be on different subnets.
## Dependencies
The CA Gateway is using the PCAS server library and needs the
[PCAS module](https://github.com/epics-modules/pcas) when compiled against
EPICS 7 (>= 3.16).
If you compile the CA Gateway with
[caPutLog](https://github.com/epics-modules/caPutLog) support,
a caPutLog version >= 3.5 is required.
## Continuous Integration
The CI jobs for CA Gateway are provided by
[Travis](https://travis-ci.org/epics-extensions/ca-gateway).
## Links
More details are available on the
[CA Gateway main web page](http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/extensions/gateway/).
