XMPP Gateway

The XMPP Gateway role was originally released for Office Communications Server 2007 R2 and had not received even as much as a name change when Lync Server 2010 came along. With Lync Server 2013 the XMPP gateway role has been moved into the Front End Server as a native service, and the Edge Server includes an XMPP proxy service to facilitate connections to remote XMPP partners.

The maddening limit of requiring one XMPP gateway per SIP domain has also been removed, and the gateway service can now handle XMPP connections for multiple SIP domains.
