	Table 10-2 Edit IP Static Route
LABEL	DESCRIPTION
Destination IP	Type the IP network address of the final destination. Routing is always based on
Address	network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a subnet mask of
	255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical
	to the host ID.
IP Subnet Mask	Type the IP subnet mask here.
Gateway IP	Type the IP address of the gateway.
Address	The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your ZyAIR that will forward the packet to the
	destination. On the LAN, the gateway must be a router on the same segment as your
	ZyAIR; over the WAN, the gateway must be the IP address of one of the remote
	nodes.
Metric	Type a number that approximates the cost for this link. 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. 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 ZyAIR will include the route to this remote node in its
	RIP broadcasts. If this check box is selected, this route is kept private and not included
	in RIP broadcast. If it is not selected, the route to this remote node will be propagated
	to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
