What is a WAP gateway?
A WAP gateway is a piece of software that has several functions in the "chain" between the WAP device and the web server. These functions are in general:
  • Converting the markup language (WML) from textual format to tokenized (binary/compressed) format which is readable by the WAP device.
  • Translating the requests from the WAP device to HTTP requests for the "web" world.
  • Convert between the SSL encryption used in the "web" world and the WTLS encryption used in the WAP world.
  • Convert between the "transport" protocol of the "web", TCP, and that of the WAP world, WDP.
