Type the IP address of the remote network or gateway. The gateway is an
Type the IP address of the remote network or gateway. The gateway is an
immediate neighbor of your WR3000 Wireless Router that will forward the packet
to the destination. On the LAN, the gateway must be a router on the same
segment as your WR3000 Wireless Router; over the WAN, the gateway must be
the IP address of one of the remote nodes.

When using a LAN to LAN application, type the IP subnet mask of the
destination network. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.255, in the subnet mask fi eld, to force the
network number to be identical to the host ID.
Network Address Translation
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol
address used within one network to a different IP address known within another
network.
SUA
(Single User Account) is a subset of NAT that supports two types of
mapping:
Many-to-One
and
Server.
When you select this option the WR3000
Wireless Router will use Address Mapping Set 255 in the SMT.
Choose
SUA Only
if you have just one public WAN IP address for your
WR3000 Wireless Router. Choose
Full Feature
if you have multiple public
WAN IP addresses for your WR3000 Wireless Router. For more information
about NAT refer to the MAT chapter in this
User’s Guide.

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.

This parameter determines if the WR3000 Wireless Router will include the
route to this remote node in its RIP broadcasts. If select
Yes,
this route is kept
private and not included in RIP broadcast. If select
No,
the route to this remote
node will be propagated to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
