LAN and each end must have a unique address within the WAN
network number. If this is the case, enter the IP address
assigned to the WAN port of your Prestige.

Note that this is the address assigned to your local Prestige
WAN, not the remote router. If the remote router is a Prestige,
then this entry determines the local Prestige Rem IP Address in
