DESCRIPTION

OPTIONS

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: This is your local Prestige address, not the remote router’s.

 

 

 

 

Single User

Use [SPACE BAR] to toggle between Yes and No. Yes enables the

Yes/No

Account

Single User Account feature of your Prestige.

 

Metric

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

1 to 15

 

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

Yes/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.
