FIELD

 

DESCRIPTION

OPTIONS

 

 

VPI

Enter the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) number that your

 

 

 

 

telephone company supplies.

 

 

 

VCI

Enter the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) number that your

 

 

 

 

telephone company supplies.

 

 

 

Rem IP Adress

This will show the IP address you entered for this remote node

 

 

 

 

in the previous menu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rem IP Subnet

Enter the subnet mask for the remote network.

 

 

 

Mask

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My Wan

Some implementations, especially the UNIX derivatives, require

 

 

 

Address

the WAN link to have a separate IP network number from the

 

 

 

 

LAN and each end must have a unique address within the WAN

 

 

 

 

network number. If this is the case, enter the IP address

 

 

 

 

assigned to the WAN port of your Prestige.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: This is the address assigned to your local Prestige WAN,

 

 

 

 

not the remote router. If the remote router is a Prestige, then

 

 

 

 

this entry determines the local Prestige Rem IP Addr in Menu

 

 

 

 

11.1.

 

 

 

 

Single User

Set this field to Yes to enable the Single User Account feature

Yes or No

 

 

Account

for your Prestige. Use the [space bar] to toggle between Yes

 

 

 

 

and No. See Chapter 3 – Internet Access Application for

 

 

 

 

more information on the Single User Account feature.

 

 

 

Metric

Metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes.

1 to 15

 

 

 

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

Yes or 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 Direction

Press [space bar] to select from Both, In Only, Out Only or

Both, In Only,

 

 

 

None.

 

Out Only or

 

 

 

 

 

None
