Metric

This field is valid only for PPTP/PPPoE encapsulation. The metric

3

 

represents the “cost” of transmission for routing 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 field is valid only for PPTP/PPPoE encapsulation. This

Yes

 

parameter determines if the Prestige will include the route 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

Press the [SPACE BAR] to select the RIP direction. Options are:

None

 

Both, None, In Only, Out Only or None. Please see the RIP Setup

(default)

 

section for more information on RIP. The default for RIP on the WAN

 

 

side is None. It is recommended that you do not change this setting.

 

Version

Press the [SPACE BAR] to select the RIP version. Options are RIP-

None

 

1, RIP-2B or RIP-2M.
