ActiveGate Daisy Chaining

I expect that the answer is no, but is it possible to have 2 Security Gateways 'daisy chained' together?

OneAgent --> Private ActiveGate --> Private ActiveGate --> SaaS Dynatrace Cluster.

I know we have an embedded AG built into the Dynatrace Cluster. Is this bypassed when we have a Private AG?

Thanks

Nick

Nick, I'd rather ask the question as to what drives you to want daisy chained SGs. Perhaps a proxy server (not provided by Dynatrace) might address your real need?

It's a good point Joseph - I was wondering whether there would be any benefits in terms of further compression. A proxy would be a good option - thanks for your help.

Nick, There's no additional compression benefits from running serialized SGs.
