1.5 Prerequisites/Preconditions

If an enterprise has more than one MSMQ site, each MSMQ site has one or more MSMQ site gates assigned to it.

The following are the requirements for an MSMQ queue manager to be an MSMQ site gate:

  • The MSMQ queue manager has to belong to the MSMQ site for which it is an MSMQ site gate.

  • The MSMQ queue manager has to be able to connect directly to each MSMQ site gate in each neighboring MSMQ site.

MSMQ routing servers within an MSMQ site have to be able to communicate on all connected networks used by the MSMQ queue managers within that MSMQ site.
