Neighbor Gateway Reachable Networks
Worksheet Information
The following is a description of the information that needs to be
gathered for the worksheets that follow in this chapter. This
information is used for configuring nodes.
Neighbor Gateway IP Internet Address
This is the IP address of the gateway specified on the
Neighbor Gateways screen. The IP address is in the
same format as the LAN Configuration screen. An
example of an address is: C 192.007.007 001
IP network address
The IP addresses of all the remote networks that can be
reached through the gateway whose IP address is
configured in the previous field. If the gateway node is
to serve as a default gateway, enter an at sign (@) in one
of these fields.
IP mask
The IP mask allows you to specify a subnet mask for
each reachable network. This is in the same format as
an IP address. This mask is optional.
Hops
This is the number of hops (full gateways) that a packet
travels to reach a remote network from a local network.
Two partner gateway halves count as one hop.
