IP Address
Assignment

If your ISP did not assign you an explicit IP address, select Dynamic;
otherwise select Static and enter the IP address & subnet mask in the
following fields.

Dynamic

Rem IP Address

If you have a Static IP Assignment, enter the IP address assigned to
the remote node.

192.168.1.1

Rem IP Subnet
Mask

If you have a Static IP Assignment, enter the subnet mask assigned
to the remote node.

My WAN Addr

Some implementations, especially the UNIX derivatives, require the
WAN link to have a separate IP network number from the 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 ZyWALL.

Note that this is the address assigned to your local ZyWALL, not the
remote router.

Metric

The 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. Enter a number that
approximates the cost for this link. The number need not be precise,
but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good

1 to 15
