Prestige 100 and 100IH ISDN Router and Router/Hub

Please note that every machine on a network must have a unique IP address - do not assign an arbitrary address to any machine. If you are not sure as to which IP address to assign to the Prestige, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or refer to Chapter 3 of this guide for more details.

IP Subnet Mask - An IP address consists of two parts, the network ID and the host ID. The IP Subnet Mask is used to specify the network ID portion of the address, expressed in dotted decimal notation. The Prestige automatically calculates this mask based on the IP address that you assign. Unless you have a special need for subnetting, use the default mask as calculated by the Prestige.
