7. Enter the IP address and netmask assigned to your router by your Internet service

provider or system administrator.

You are asked to enter the IP address (n.n.n.n/n) for this router. The number following the

slash mark is the netmask. If the netmask was given to you in the form of N.N.N.N, you must

convert this to the form /n (refer to Table 3-4).

If your case is not shown, consult your Internet service provider or system administrator. If

single host address operation is needed, enter the IP address with a netmask of /0, and select

PPP mode at the next prompt. For more information about single host addressing, refer to

“Operating with a Single IP Address,” on page 3-14.
