Hi Marcel,
When you use Veeam Agent with Veeam Backup & Replication and store backups on a repository managed by the backup server, our Veeam Agent will need connectivity either to the Gateway Server or directly to the Veeam Backup Repository.
A Gateway Server is used for Object Storage, NFS, SMB, or deduplication appliances. For other repository types, the agent needs a direct connection to the repository. Object Storage Repositories can also be configured direct for AWS and S3 compatible.
Best,
Fabian
