	address is 192.168.100.0.
Subnet Mask	Both Examples -- To access all hosts in Network 3, its mask, 255.255.255.0, is used.
Gateway or Interface	Example 1 -- the route is to a gateway.
	Example 2 -- the route is to an interface since unnumbered interfaces are being
	used.
Gateway IP Address	Applies only when previous parameter is Gateway. It must be an address visible to
	the router. In Example 1, it is 142.10.0.4.
Interface	Applies only when previous parameter is Interface. Select the port (Ethernet or slot
	N) that will be unnumbered. In Example 2, it is Slot 1.
Metric	Relative cost of this link. Generally measured in number of routers between two IP
	addresses. Both Examples -- 1.
Is This a Backup	Indicates that this route is used as a backup in a multilink circuit. See section 4.4 for
Route?	more information about multilink circuits.
OSPF Advertises	Static routes defined in the router can be advertised by OSPF. Both this parameter
This Static Route	and the parameter CONFIG=>IP=>OSPF=>GLOBAL=>ADVERTISE STATIC
	ROUTES must be set to Yes for the route to be advertised.
External Metric	Applies when OSPF Advertises This Static Route is set to Yes. Defines the metric

	metric of this route is composed of the internal metric (inside the autonomous system)
	and the external metric (provided in the previous parameter). For Type 2, the total
	metric of this route is the value provided in the previous parameter.
