address).

backup connection).

traffic.
Timeout
Type the number of seconds (3 recommended) for your Prestige to wait for a
ping response from one of the IP addresses in the Check WAN IP Address
field before timing out the request. The WAN connection is considered "down"
after the Prestige times out the number of times specified in the Fail Tolerance
field. Use a higher value in this field if your network is busy or congested.

field. Use a higher value in this field if your network is busy or congested.
Traffic Redirect
Active Select this check box to have the Prestige use traffic redirect if the normal WAN
connection goes down.
Metric This field sets this route's priority among the routes the Prestige uses.
The metric represents the "cost of transmission". A router determines the best
route for transmission by choosing a path with the lowest "cost". RIP routing
uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of "1" for directly
connected networks. The number must be between "1" and "15"; a number
greater than "15" means the link is down. The smaller the number, the lower the
"cost".
