or
nms mask add <IP address> [mask] and press Enter.
Mask, as given in this command, is a 16-bit value. Each bit
corresponds to a modem slot. The most significant bit
corresponds to slot 16, while the least significant bit
corresponds to slot 1. If a value of 1 is used in the bit, the
corresponding slot can not be managed with NMS software. If
this value is omitted in the mask add command, the default
value is 0 allowing all modems to be managed. The value
entered must be in hexadecimal format either using one 16-bit
word or two bytes where the first byte corresponds with slot 9
to slot 16.
To delete a mask type: nms mask del <IP address> and press
Enter.
