The following table shows the TCP/IP related fields in Menu 11.3 - Remote Node Network Layer
Options.
Table 5-2 TCP/IP Remote Node Configuration
Field Description Option
IP Address
Assignment
Press the [Space Bar] to select Static or Dynamic address
assignment. The following two fields are N/A for a dynamic
address assignment.
Static/ Dynamic
Rem IP Address This will show the IP address you entered for this remote node in
the previous menu.
Rem IP Subnet
Mask
Enter the subnet mask for the remote network.
My WAN Addr
Some implementations, especially the UNIX derivatives, require
the WAN link to have a separate IP network number from the
LAN and each end must have a unique address within the WAN
network number. If this is the case, enter the IP address assigned
to the WAN port of your Prestige.
Note that this is the address assigned to your local Prestige, not
the remote router.
Single User
Account
Set this field to Yes to enable the Single User Account feature for
your Prestige. Use the space bar to toggle between Yes and No.
See Chapter 3 - Internet Access Application for more information
on the Single User Account feature.
Yes/No
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.
1 to 15
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.
Yes/No
RIP Direction Press the space bar to select the RIP direction from Both/In
Only/Out Only or None.
(Default=Both)
Version= Press the space bar to select the RIP version from RIP-1/RIP-
2B/RIP-2M.
RIP-1 (default)
