gateway types, and gateway instances.
This Event Gateways section contains the following pages:
• Event Gateway Settings page
• Gateway Types page
• Gateway Instances page
Event Gateway Settings page
The Event Gateway Settings page lets you configure settings for all event gateways, and start or
stop the Short Message Service (SMS) test server. The following table describes the settings:
Gateway Types page
The Gateways Types pages lets you configure the types of gateways available on your system. After
you configure a type, you can create any number of gateway instances of that type. The following
table describes the event gateway types that ship with ColdFusion MX:
Option Description
Enable ColdFusion
Event Gateway Service
Specifies whether the service is enabled. Changing this setting restarts the
service.

functions when an event arrives. A higher number uses more resources, but
increases event throughput.

the queue length exceeds this value, gateway events will not be added to
the processing queue.
Start/Stop SMS Test
