FIELD DESCRIPTION
Active Use this field to turn the traffic redirect feature on (Yes) or off (No).
Configuration
Backup
Gateway IP
Address
Type the IP address of your backup gateway in dotted decimal notation. The ZyXEL
Device automatically forwards traffic to this IP address if the ZyXEL Device's Internet
connection terminates.
Metric This field sets this route's priority among the routes the ZyXEL Device 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".
When you have completed this menu, press [ENTER] at the prompt “Press ENTER to Confirm…” to
save your configuration, or press [ESC] at any time to cancel.
