Hello Wantianmin,

Instead of setting EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST and EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST before
starting the gateway, you can use -cip

gateway -sip 10.30.50.1 -sport 6006 -cip "10.30.1.165:5064 10.30.1.166:5066 ..."
-pvlist /root/GATEWAY.pvlist -access /root/private01.access -log logfile.txt

By the way, I do not consider the gateway safe enough to run with root
privileges. (I just guessed that from the /root/ directories you use.) Better
create a gateway user and use -uid.

For the ioc use:
EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=10.30.50.1
EPICS_CA_SERVER_PORT=6006

In opposite to EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST="10.30.50.1:6006", this does not overwrite the
beacon port.

I will try it immediately .
