Metric
It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number
need not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.
•
Announced in RIP:
This parameter determines if the Prestige will include the
route to the remote node in its RIP broadcasts. Set “Yes”, it is kept private and is
not included in RIP broadcasts. Set “No”, the remote node will be propagated to
other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
4.3.2 NAT
The
NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP
address of a host in a packet. The default setting is
Dynamic NAPT
. It provides dynamic
Network Address Translation capability between LAN and multiple WAN connections, and
the LAN traffic is routed to appropriate WAN connections based on the destination IP
addresses and Route Table. This eliminates the need for the static NAT session
configuration between multiple LAN clients and multiple WAN connections.

Virtual Circuit:
VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier)
define a virtual circuit. There are eight groups of PVC can be defined and used.
Number of IPs:
User can select Single or Multiple.
DMZ
The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular
internal IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall
and NAT algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a
port number used by any other Virtual Server entries.
