Enable session recording on a project

To enable session recording, resource administrators must first install, enroll, and configure a gateway and associate the gateway to one or more projects. Security admins can then create policies where traffic forwarding through gateways is configured, and session recording is enabled.

If a security admin enable session recording and the resource admin has not installed, enrolled, and configured a gateway, the user connnection will fail.
