Gateway differs from a typical fabric switch because it is not a switch; instead, it is a mode that you enable on a switch using the ag command. After a switch is set in ag mode, it can connect to the fabric using node ports (N_Ports). Typically fabric switches connect to the Enterprise fabric using - HP StorageWorks 4/64 | Brocade Access Gateway Administrator's Guide v6.2.0 (53-1 - Page 23

The switch is logically transparent to the fabric, therefore it does not participate in the SAN as a fabric switch.
