{{Purpose section<br />
|text=SAProuter is an SAP program that acts as an intermediate station (proxy) in a network connection between SAP systems, or between SAP systems and external networks. SAP Sessions are terminated by the SAP Router.<br />
<br />
SAProuter controls the access to your network (application level gateway), and, as such, is a useful enhancement to an existing traffic filter facility. SAProuter provides you with the means of controlling access to your SAP system.<br />
<br />
You can use SAProuter to do the following:<br />
* Control and log the connections to your SAP system, for instance from a SAP service center<br />
* Set up an indirect connection when programs involved in the connection cannot communicate with each other due to the network configuration<br />
** Address conflicts when using non-registered IP addresses<br />
** Restrictions arising from traffic filtering systems<br />
* Improve network security by means of the following:<br />
** A password, which protects your connection and data from unauthorized external access<br />
** Allowing access from particular SAProuters only.<br />
** Only allowing encrypted connections from a known partner (using the SNC layer)<br />
* Increase performance and stability by reducing the SAP system workload within a local area network (LAN) when communicating with a wide area network (WAN)<br />
<br />
The picture below illustrates your network (LAN) using a firewall as protection against access from outside. There is SAProuter running on the firewall host serving as a “door” to your network. This door is only opened for connections you specify.<br />
