Metric

 

The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing

[1] to [16]

 

 

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

 

 

 

[16]. In practice, [2] or [3] is usually a good number.

 

 

 

 

 

Private

 

This parameter determines if the Prestige will include the route

[Yes/No]

 

 

to 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

 

This parameter determines how your Prestige handles RIP

(Default=Both)

 

 

(Routing Information Protocol), and the default is [Both].

 

 

 

If set to [Both], your Prestige will broadcast its routing table on

[Both]

 

 

the WAN, and incorporate RIP broadcasts by the other router

 

 

 

into its routing table.

 

 

 

If set to [In Only], your Prestige will not broadcast its routing

[In Only]

 

 

table on the WAN.

 

 

 

 

[Out Only]

 

 

If set to [Out Only], your Prestige will broadcast its routing table

 

 

 

but ignores any RIP broadcast packets that it receives.

 

 

 

If set to [None], your Prestige will not participate in any RIP

[None]

 

 

 

 

 

exchange with other routers.

 

 

 

Usually, you should leave this parameter at its default of [Both]

 

 

 

and let RIP propagate the routing information automatically.

 

 

 

 

Once you have completed filling in the Network Layer Options Menu, press [Enter] to return to Menu 11.

Press [Enter] at the message [Press ENTER to Confirm...] to save your selections, or press [Esc] at any

time to cancel your selections.
