In this case, the OMS agent computer forwards its TCP connection to the OMS Gateway, which tunnels the TCP connection to the OMS service endpoints.

The OMS Gateway can be used with both OMS agents that are configured to directly connect to an OMS workspace, and an Operations Manager (SCOM) management group that is integrated with OMS.
