1. Route Name - Enter a descriptive name for this route. This is

for identification purpose only.

2. Active - This fields allows you to activate/deactivate this static

route.

3. Destination IP Address - This parameter specifies the IP

network address of the final destination. 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.

4. IP Subnet Mask - Enter the subnet mask for this destination.

Follow the discussion on IP subnet mask in this chapter.

5. Gateway IP Address - Enter the IP address of the gateway.

The gateway is an immediate neighbor of the Prestige that will
forward the packet to the destination. On the LAN, the
gateway must be a router on the same segment as the Prestige;
over ISDN, the gateway must be the IP address of one of the
Remote Nodes.
