Route/IP/Net
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
The PPP peer’s IP address or network can be set here, if known. Leaving this at 0.0.0.0 means that the Express L128/L128T will determine the PPP peer’s IP and network using the PPP IPCP.
Route/Netmask
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
This network mask is applied to the IP/NET address for determining the PPP peer’s network. If left as 0.0.0.0, a standard network mask is used.
Route/Static Route Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When set to Yes (def), the Express L128/L128T will add the network defined above as an idle route in the IP routing table. When an IP packet is routed to this idle route, the Express L128/L128T will dial using this profile. When set to No, an idle route is not placed in the table. This is necessary for
Route/Private
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When set to Yes, the Express L128/L128T will not advertise this static route entry. A setting of No (def) means any static route added for this profile is ad- vertised using RIP.
Route/Hops
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
This value is the metric or number of hops that RIP will use in advertising the static route. The range is 1 to 16 where 1 is the default. The value 16 is consid- ered an infinite distance in RIP and is, in effect, poisoning the route.
Route/Force IP
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
When set to Yes, the Express L128/L128T will force the PPP peer to use the IP address in the IP/Net for this profile as its WAN IP address. Normally this is set in the No (def) position.
