Subnet Mask

This parameter is usually extracted from the Static IP address based upon the class of the
address. It determines the destination of any broadcast messages that might be sent from the
instrument. It can be customized if necessary. The subnet mask may also be provided with
the Static IP address.
Example 1
In this example, a Static IP address has been chosen because no network is available. The
instrument is connected to the network port on the PC with a crossover Ethernet cable (not
included). This is also referred to as Direct Connect:
IP Address: 10.0.0.2
Default Gateway: 10.0.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Example 2
In this example, the Static IP address has been assigned with an associated gateway and
subnet mask:
IP Address: 153.56.100.42
Default Gateway: 153.56.100.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.252.0
