Neighbor Gateway Reachable Networks Worksheet Information 

The following is a description of the information that needs to be
gathered for the worksheets that follow in this chapter.  This
information is used in chapters 6, 7, and 8 for configuring nodes.

|                                                                           |
| Neighbor Gateway   This is the IP address of the gateway specified on the |
| IP Internet        Neighbor Gateways screen.  The IP address is in the    |
| Address            same format as the LAN Configuration screen.  An       |
|                    example of an address is:                              |
|                                                                           |
|                    C 192.007.007 001                                      |
|                                                                           |
| IP network address The IP addresses of all the remote networks that can   |
|                    be reached through the gateway whose IP address is     |
|                    configured in the previous field.  If the gateway node |
|                    is to serve as a default gateway, enter an at sign (@) |
|                    in one of these fields.                                |
|                                                                           |
| IP mask            The IP mask allows you to specify a subnet mask for    |
|                    each reachable network.  This is in the same format as |
|                    an IP address.  This mask is optional.                 |
|                                                                           |
| Hops               This is the number of hops (full gateways) that a      |
|                    packet travels to reach a remote network from a local  |
|                    network.  Two partner gateway halves count as one hop. |
|                                                                           |
