Prestige 201 ISDN Access Router

Field

Description

 

 

Gateway IP Address

Enter 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

The 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. 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 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.
