LABEL
Destination IP Type the IP network address of the final destination. Routing is always based on
Address 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.
IP Subnet Mask Type the IP subnet mask here.
Gateway IP Type the IP address of the gateway.
Address The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your ZyAIR that will forward the packet to the
destination. On the LAN, the gateway must be a router on the same segment as your
ZyAIR; over the WAN, the gateway must be the IP address of one of the remote
nodes.
Metric Type a number that approximates the cost for this link. 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. The number need not be
precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good number.
Private This parameter determines if the ZyAIR will include the route to this remote node in its
RIP broadcasts. If this check box is selected, this route is kept private and not included
in RIP broadcast. If it is not selected, the route to this remote node will be propagated
to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
