    2. On the details page, perform one of the following actions depending on the option that you see:
      • On the Gateways tab, go to the Internet Gateways section.
      • Under Resources, select Internet Gateway.
    3. Select the the Actions menu Actions Menu for the gateway, and then select Move Resource.
    4. In the Move resource panel, select the destination compartment from the list.
    5. Select Move resource.
