The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 50   Static Route Setup

Active

This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.

Destination IP 

Address

This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination.  Routing is 

always based on network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, 

use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the 

network number to be identical to the host ID.

IP Subnet Mask 

Enter the IP subnet mask here.

Gateway IP 

Address

Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of 

your Prestige that will forward the packet to the destination. On the LAN, the 

gateway must be a router on the same segment as your Prestige; over the WAN, 

the gateway must be the IP address of one of the Remote Nodes.

Metric

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. 

Apply
