Prestige 100WH Internet Access Router Table 5-1. Remote Node Network Layer Options for a TCP/IP Configuration Field Description 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 hosts on both ends of the link to have separate addresses from the LAN, and that the addresses must have the same 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. Please see Figure 5-3 for an explanation of My WAN Addr. With Sample IP Addresses. Single User Account This field should be set to [Yes] to enable the Single User Account (Network Address Translation) feature for this site. 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. Server IP address If you are using the Single User Account feature and you want to make a server on your LAN (for example, a Web server) accessible to outside users, enter that servers IP address here. 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 [16]. In practice, [2] or [3] is usually a good number. 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. 5-4 Chapter 5 Remote Node TCP/IP Configuration
