Lunar Gateway Integration

Once your Lunar Gateway is installed and connected to MCPX, you’ll start seeing real-time traffic from your MCP servers directly in the Control Plane.

Control Plane

If you’ve launched a few MCP servers and they’re handling requests, the UI will automatically display:

  • Discovered API endpoints
  • Request performance (latency, error rate, throughput)
  • Live traffic logs by endpoint and by server
  • Connections back to your Gateway routing and quota settings

No additional setup is required. As long as the LUNAR_GATEWAY_URL is configured correctly, MCPX will automatically register each server and forward traffic data to the Control Plane.

LUNAR_GATEWAY_URL=http://localhost:8000

Connect with Lunar.dev Hosted Gateway​

The easiest way to get started is by using the Lunar.dev hosted gateway — no setup required. Just follow the Lunar Hosted Gateway installation guide and set your LUNAR_GATEWAY_URL accordingly.

Using Docker​

If you installed Lunar Gateway using Docker, you’re all set. Just ensure your containers are running and reachable, and the UI will begin to reflect any activity passing through the gateway.

Need help setting that up? Go to the Docker installation guide.
