I try to connect to a remote gateway using ssl as in this [doc](https://www.docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/platform/gateway-network) but it does not work. There is no certificate showing up in "_Incoming Connections_" of the remote gateway.

Non-ssl connection to remote gateway is working okay.

Am I missing something?

TIA

Do you have _Require Two-Way Auth_ enabled on the gateway where you're creating the _Outgoing Connection_ [to the remote gateway]? You should see something of note in the logs.

If you don't have _Require Two-Way Auth_, you might check other simple things like if the remote gateway has any firewall rules blocking port `8060/tcp` (especially if you're seeing _Connection Timed Out_ errors on your outgoing connection).

I found out what was wrong. The remote gateway is on docker and I forgot to expose port 8060. Added the port, everything is good.
