Thanks. The gateway is on the web not local, correct? How do we explain to a customer who wants everything local? within there LAN

It uses web technologies. It is entirely possible to have it on premises, completely isolated from the Internet (which is strongly recommended).

I think you are confusing _cloud edition_.

I suggest you read the manual and cover topics on Inductive University, or contact the sales team at IA for a sales demo.
