There are a couple of types of gateways (Personal and On-Premise) and you will need the On-Premise one.

When implementing this I selected:

Data Source Type

Server 

Database

Then used a service account to link to the server.

The service account has local admin permissions on the server and in SSMS had sysadmin permissions.

I hope this helps.
