connection terminates.
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".
When you have completed this menu, press [ENTER] at the prompt "Press [ENTER] to confirm or [ESC] to
cancel" to save your configuration or press [ESC] to cancel and go back to the previous screen.
