Routing is always based on network number. If you need to specify a route to
a single host, use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field
to force the network number to be identical to the host ID.
Enter the subnet mask for this destination. See IP Subnet Mask.

of your Prestige that will forward the packet to the destination. On the LAN,
the gateway must be a router on the same segment as your Prestige; over
WAN, the gateway must be the IP address of one of the remote nodes.
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 15. In

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 is not
