Send in RIP?

  When configuring networks that require a specific route, you may add them to the static routing table. For each network IP address, you must specify the next hop as the IP address of the specific router to which the device must send data. The unit then includes these entries in its RIP table updates.
  Click on the Add button to add a static route.

Port

  This is the port through which the unit will contact the next router.
  Range: 1 -- 8 or LAN

DLCI

  This is the DLCI through which the unit contacts the next router. If the unit reaches its next router through the LAN, this field should be empty.
  Range: 16 -- 1023

IP Address

  This is the address of the destination device, or network. If you are routing to a particular device on a network, you must enter the device's IP address. If you are routing to a particular network, you only need to enter the network address. Targeting a network gives you access to all units attached to that network, not just a single device.
  For example: the device address on network A = 132.147.13.33
  the network address for network A = 132.147.13.0
  this sample network is using a class C mask (255.255.255.0)
  Range: Four numbers (0 - 255) separated by a period

Network Mask

  This value defines the network mask used by the destination device or network.
  Range: Four numbers (0 -- 255) separated by a period

Next Hop IP Address

  This is the address of the router the unit must contact to reach the destination device or network.
  If there is more than one router between the unit and the destination device or network, this address must be the first router the unit encounters. You must then configure a static route on that router and all subsequent routers between the unit and the destination device or network.
  In short, the route must be mapped through completely.
  Range: Four numbers (0 -- 255) separated by a period

Send in RIP?

  Enable this feature if you want the static route to be included in the RIP broadcast. If set to No, the RIP packet will not include the route in the broadcast.
  Range: Yes or No

Metric

  This field enables you to determine the route's metric value. The higher the metric, the least likely it will be used as a preferred route.
  Range: 1 ~ 15
