- Werther you use a.b.0.0 or a.b.c.0 depends on exactly how your net is
- configured.
- If you don't know this ask someone at your site.
- (if that dosn't work then try the following
- your machine ip: a1.b1.c1.d1
- router ip:a2.b2.c2.d2
- if a1=a2 you are on a class A net, use a1.0.0.0
- if a1=a2 and b1=b2 you are on a class B net, use a1.b1.0.0
- if a1=a2 and b1=b2 and c1=c2 you are on a class C net, use a1.b1.c1.0

- There are a couple of documents on managing IP nets.
- They originate from rutgers.edu these might be helpful.
