 Once the client associates with a new access point, this access point needs to 
update its NAT mappings, establish tunnels to the services the clients talks to 
and, by sending a data packet or signaling packet, update the NAT mapping of 
the communication endpoint.
 
 
-\item[Service relay]
+\item[Service gateway]
+
+A service gateway allows for private networks and services to be included in 
the PISA network with only one gateway device that maps the PISA network 
traffic to traffic and endpoints in the private network.
+Examples for usage scenarios are the inclusion of existing services in 
networks run by companies, the municipality or the university.
+Traffic towards the service gateway is tunneled through HIP/IPsec and PISA and 
is "unwrapped" there.
+Between the service gateway and the service (network) a private IP assignment 
scheme and routing is used, traffic characteristics depend on the internal 
network structure and design.
+The gateway handles NAT mappings and tunnel establishment between services and 
communication endpoints in the PISA network.
+
+\item[Trustpoint/Relay]
+
+A trustpoint serves as the relay to the Internet for \emph{native clients}.
+Traffic that is generated by a native client and is intended for the Internet 
rather than for an endpoint in the PISA network needs to go through this 
trustpoint.
+To this end, a native client's default route (for destinations outside the 
PISA address space) points to the trustpoint, which is either his own access 
point at home or
+a trustpoint of/for a number of users provided by a company or university.
+At the trustpoint, this traffic is "unwrapped" and forwarded over the users 
own Internet connection to its original destination.
