Rather than (or in addition to) polling the encap table from the portal on a timer, the portal could offer an HTTP longpoll API (or various other push messaging protocols) so that address updates are near instantaneous.
I think this is a good idea, it wouldn't be difficult to come up with a push process that updates every time a gateway is edited. It would eliminate the quite costly FTP part of the current process. I will have a think about this and have a chat with Brian, see what can be done between the two machines.
