  • Page 68 IP Addresses, Netmask etc An IP address is a 32-bit value, divided into four octets of eight bits each. The standard representation is four decimal numbers (in the range of 0..255), divided by dots. Example: 192.2.1.123 This is called decimal-dot notation. The IP address is divided in two parts: a network and a host part.
  • Page 69 The netmask is used to divide the IP address differently from the standard defined by the classes A,B,C. By entering a netmask, it is possible to define how many bits from the IP address are to be taken as the network part and how many bits are to be taken as the host part.
