SAP Note 49208 - Gateway does not recognize its own host

Component : Gateway/CPIC -

Summary :
When setting up a local server connection in SM51, a timeout may occur due to multiple host names associated with the gateway. This can lead to mismatches in the host name used for the connection to the message server. The issue can arise due to incomplete hosting lists generated by netstat or mis-configurations in gateway parameters like gw/alternative_hostnames. Resolution involves ensuring the SAP R/3 environment utilizes the correct hostname, as identified by gethostname, by configuring the network appropriately and setting necessary parameters in the gateway configurations to recognize all valid host names.
