The gateway cannot be installed on a domain controller
You shouldn't install a gateway on a computer, such a laptop, that may be turned off, asleep, or not connected to the Internet because the gateway can't run under any of those circumstances. In addition, gateway performance might suffer over a wireless network.
Analysis Services is not required to use the gateway. You can use the gateway to connect to an Analysis Services data source.
