Prestige 650 ADSL Router

FIELD

DESCRIPTION

EXAMPLE

 

 

 

IP Address

Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Dynamic if the remote

Static

Assignment

node is using a dynamically assigned IP address or Static if it is using a

 

 

static (fixed) IP address. You will only be able to configure this in the

 

 

ISP node (also the one you configure in menu 4), all other nodes are

 

 

set to Static.

 

Rem IP Addr

This is the IP address you entered in the previous menu.

 

 

 

 

Rem Subnet

Type the subnet mask assigned to the remote node.

 

Mask

 

 

 

 

 

My WAN Addr

Some implementations, especially UNIX derivatives, require separate

 

 

IP network numbers for the WAN and LAN links and each end to have a

 

 

unique address within the WAN network number. In that case, type the

 

 

IP address assigned to the WAN port of your Prestige.

 

 

NOTE: Refers to local Prestige address, not the remote router address.

 

 

 

 

NAT

Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Full Feature if you

Full

 

have multiple public WAN IP addresses for your Prestige.

Feature

 

Select SUA Only if you have just one public WAN IP address for your

 

 

Prestige. The SMT uses Address Mapping Set 255 (menu 15.1 - see

 

 

section 7.3.1).

 

 

Select None to disable NAT.

 

 

 

 

Address

When Full Feature is selected in the NAT field, configure address

2

Mapping Set

mapping sets in menu 15.1. Select one of the NAT server sets (2-10) in

 

 

menu 15.2 (see the NAT chapter for details) and type that number here.

 

 

When SUA Only is selected in the NAT field, the SMT uses NAT server

 

 

set 1 in menu 15.2 (see the NAT chapter for details).

 

Metric

The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes.

2

 

IP routing uses hop count as the cost measurement, with a minimum of

 

 

1 for directly connected networks. Type 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 determines if the Prestige will include the route to this remote node

No

 

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] and then [ENTER] to select the RIP Direction.

None

 

Options are Both, In Only, Out Only or None.
