3.You must also set the Broadcast Address. Type the following:

set net0 broadcast <high or low>

Enter

High The bits of the host portion of a broadcast address are all ones. This is the rule for the vast majority of IP networks.

Low The bits of the host portion of a broadcast address are all zeroes. This is rare, but is still used by some systems including Sun OS 4.x (Solaris 1.x).

For example, the node 192.77.203.7 uses the default subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, which would give it a high broadcast address of 192.77.203.255 and a low broadcast address of 192.77.203.0. To use the address ending in 255:

set net0 broadcast high

Enter

4.If your network does not use the IPX protocol, you may now go to Final Steps. Otherwise complete the steps in the next section, IPX Configuration.
