9.3 TCP/IP Priority (Metric)

The metric represents the "cost of transmission". A router determines the best route for transmission by choosing a path with the lowest "cost". RIP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of "1" for directly connected networks. The number must be between "1" and "15"; a number greater than "15" means the link is down. The smaller the number, the lower the "cost".

9.4 Configuring WAN IP

To change your ZyAIR’s WAN IP settings, click WAN, then the WAN IP tab. This screen varies according to the type of encapsulation you select.

If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address, click Get automatically from ISP (Default);otherwise click Use fixed IP Address and enter the IP address in the field provided.
