Novell ACCESS MANAGER 3.1 SP2 - ACCESS GATEWAY GUIDE 2010 Manual page 101

Act as Router: Select this option if the Access Gateway functions as the default gateway for
clients on the network. If you select this option, you can specify additional gateways.
Enable Gateway Statistics Monitoring: Select this option if you want to gather statistics and
monitor the traffic on the gateways.
4 Configure your default gateway, which specifies the gateway to use when no other routes
apply. Configure the following:
Next Hop: The IP address of the gateway.
Metric: A relative number indicating the bias you can add to the normal flow of gateway logic.
Specifying a number higher than 1 makes this resource more expensive and alters the gateway
logic used. Valid numbers include 1 through 16.
Type: Gateways are active if they publish their presence, or passive if they do not.
5 Configure your host gateways, which are the gateways to be used for packets being sent to
specific hosts. When you select New from the Host Gateway list, you are asked for the
following information:
Next Hop: The address of the host gateway that is to be used.
Host: The IP address of the destination host. Valid addresses cannot be the first or last address
of a class and must be unique.
Metric: A relative number indicating the bias you can add to the normal flow of gateway logic.
Specifying a number higher than 1 makes this resource more expensive and alters the gateway
logic used. Valid numbers include 1 through 16.
Type: Gateways are active if they publish their presence, or passive if they do not.
Click OK when the fields are configured.
6 Configure your network gateways, which are the gateways to be used for packets being sent to
specific subnets. When you select New from the Network Gateway list, you are asked for the
following information:
Next Hop: The address of the gateway that is to be used.
Network Address: The subnet address for the destination IP address range. You can also enter
a specific IP address on a given subnet, and the Access Gateway calculates the subnet address
using the mask.
Mask: The subnet mask for the subnet or IP address above. A valid entry must be at least as
large as a class mask where a Class A mask is 255.0.0.0, a Class B mask is 255.255.0.0, and
Class C, D, and E masks are 255.255.255.0.
Metric: A relative number indicating the bias you can add to the normal flow of gateway logic.
Specifying a number higher than 1 makes this resource more expensive and alters the gateway
logic used. Valid numbers include 1 through 16.
Type: Gateways are active if they publish their presence, or passive if they do not.
Click OK when the fields are configured.
