Table 14-2 Menu 11.3 Remote Node Network Layer Options
FIELD DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
IP Address
Assignment Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Dynamic if the remote
node is using a dynamically assigned IP address or Static if it is using a
static (fixed) IP address. You will only be able to configure this in the ISP
node (also the one you configure in menu 4). All other nodes are set to
Static .
Dynamic
Rem IP Addr This is the IP address you entered in the previous menu.
Rem Subnet
Mask Type the subnet mask assigned to the remote node.
My WAN
Addr Some implementations, especially UNIX derivatives, require separate IP
network numbers for the WAN and LAN links and each end to have a
unique address within the WAN network number. In that case, type the IP
address assigned to the WAN port of your Prestige.
Refers to local Prestige address, not the remote
router address.
NAT
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Full Feature if you have
multiple public WAN IP addresses for your Prestige.
Select SUA Only if you have just one public WAN IP address for your
Prestige. The SMT uses Address Mapping Set 255 (menu 15.1 - see
section
Error! Reference source not found. ).
Select None to disable NAT.
SUA Only
Address
Mapping Set
When SUA Only is selected in the NAT field, the SMT uses NAT server
set 1 in menu 15.2 (see the NAT chapter for details).
1
Metric The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes. IP
routing uses hop count as the cost measurement, with a minimum of 1 for
directly connected networks. Type 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. 2
Private This 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.
No
RIP
Direction Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select the RIP Direction.
Options are
Both , In Only , Out Only or None .
