Step 1. In the Neighbor Gateway IP Internet Address field, enter the IP address of the gateway specified on the Neighbor Gateways screen. An example is: C 192.007.007 001

Step 2. In the IP Network Address fields under the title Configured Reachable Networks, enter the IP addresses of all the remote networks that can be reached through the gateway whose IP address is configured in the previous field.

An “@” in the IP network address field designates the gateway as a default gateway. It means this gateway can be used to reach all the other remote networks.

Step 3. The IP subnet mask is optional. If entering one, tab to the next field. In the IP mask field, enter the number in the same format as an IP address.

Step 4. In the field labeled Hops, enter the number of hops (full gateways) needed to get to the target network. Two partner gateway halves count as one hop.

Step 5. Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4 for each remote reachable network. The information configured in this screen can extend to more than one page,
