FIELD

DESCRIPTION

EXAMPLE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Metric

Metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing

2

 

 

 

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

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.
