Enter the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) supplied by your

Rem IP Adress This will show the IP address you entered for this remote node
in the previous menu.
Rem IP Subnet

IP Address
Assignment Choose Dynamic if you have a dynamically assigned IP
address or Static if you have a static IP address. Dynamic
My Wan Address 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 Prestige.
NOTE: 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 Addr in Menu
11.1.
Single User
Account Choose Yes to enable or No to disable the Single User Account
feature. See the section on Internet Access Applications for
more information on the Single User Account feature. No
Metric 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 number. 2
