When prompted, enter the Route Name (GW), the IP Address, the
Number of Bits in the subnet mask, the Route Interface (Ethernet or Sat-
ellite), and the Next Hop address. The system administrator can supply
this information, if necessary.
In a Hub role, for example, enter the name of the route (e.g., DFG), enter
0.0.0.0 for the destination IP address and 0 for the mask, enter E for
Ethernet interface, then enter the IP address of the appropriate router or
modem for the next hop.
If this Hub unit is providing the TDM outbound, a route statement or state-
ments defining satellite communications with the Remote units must be
entered as well. One recommended option is to enter a single super-route
that will handle satellite communications with all of the remote subnets; an
example of this is shown as Route002 in figure 2-7, above.
If there are multiple burst controllers at the Hub and they are not using the
same default address (239.1.2.3), then a route with the Burstmap Multicast
