Subnet Mask

A subnet mask defines the number of bits taken from the

 

IP address that are assigned for the host part.

 

 

Default Gateway

The gateway address, or router, allows communication to

 

other LAN segments. The gateway address should be the

 

IP address of the router connected to the same LAN

 

segment as the unit. The gateway address must be within

 

the local network.
