FIELD | DESCRIPTION |
|
|
IP Subnet Mask | Type the subnet mask for this destination. Follow the discussion on IP Subnet |
| Mask in this manual. |
|
|
Gateway IP Address | Type the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of |
| your Prestige that will forward the packet to the destination. On the LAN, the |
| gateway must be a router on the same segment as your Prestige; over WAN, |
| the gateway must be the IP address of one of the remote nodes. |
|
|
Metric | Metric 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. 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 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 is not |
| included in RIP broadcasts. If No, the route to this remote node will be |
| propagated to other hosts through RIP broadcasts. |
