Metric (PPPoE and
PPTP only)
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".
Private (PPPoE and
PPTP only)
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 not
included in RIP broadcast. If No, the route to this remote node will be
propagated to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
WAN MAC Address
Spoof WAN MAC
Address
The MAC address section allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC
address by either using the factory default or cloning the MAC address from a
computer on your LAN. Clear the check box to use the factory assigned
default MAC Address.
Clone the
computer’s MAC
address
Click Clone the computer's MAC address - IP Address and enter the IP
address of the computer on the LAN whose MAC you are cloning. Once it is
successfully configured, the address will be copied to the rom file (ZyNOS
configuration file). It will not change unless you change the setting or upload a
different ROM file.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the Prestige.
