|
My WAN Addr | Some implementations, especially the UNIX derivatives, require |
|
| the WAN link to have a separate IP network number from the |
|
| LAN and each end must have a unique address within the WAN |
|
| network number. If this is the case, enter the IP address assigned |
|
| to the WAN port of your Prestige. |
|
| Note that this is the address assigned to your local Prestige, not |
|
| the remote router. |
|
|
|
|
Single User | Set this field to Yes to enable the Single User Account feature for | Yes/No |
Account | your Prestige. Use the space bar to toggle between Yes and No. |
|
| See Chapter 3 - Internet Access Application for more information |
|
| on the Single User Account feature. |
|
|
|
|
Metric | The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing | 1 to 15 |
| purposes. IP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, |
|
| with a minimum of 1 for directly connected networks. Enter a |
|
| number that approximates the cost for this link. The number need |
|
| not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or |
|
| 3 is usually a good number. |
|
|
|
|
Private | This parameter determines if the Prestige will include the route to | Yes/No |
| this remote node in its RIP broadcasts. If set to Yes, this route is |
|
| kept private and not included in RIP broadcast. If No, the route to |
|
| this remote node will be propagated to other hosts through RIP |
|
| broadcasts. |
|
|
|
|
RIP Direction | Press the space bar to select the RIP direction from Both/In | (Default=Both) |
| Only/Out Only or None. |
