Subnet Configuration
Each network is defined in the Subnet Information section. The Description field may be any text (20 character
maximum) that adequately describes this network. The Subnet Type provides a choice of Class A, B or C
networks, and affects the number of fields available to define the Subnet Address and IP Addresses fields.
Select the appropriate Subnet Type, and then complete the other fields with numbers that are correct for the
network being defined.
The IP Addresses section provides fields to enter the Host ID portion of the network being defined. Depending on
the choice of Class A, B or C as the Subnet Type, there will be 1, 2 or 3 fields to enter for the Lower Host ID. The
Upper Host ID will have one field to complete. Enter the correct numbers for the network being defined., then
click the Add button. The Host ID fields are limited to a maximum value of 254. Class A or B networks with more
than 255 addresses would be entered as separate networks. For example, network 10.10.2.0 with subnet mask
255.255.254.0 would be entered in two steps. The first would be 10.10.2.0 with Upper Host IDs 1 to 254; the
second entry would be 10.10.3.0 with Upper Host IDs 1 to 254.
The example below shows the form filled out for a Class C network. The range of addresses available for the IP
Solutions Tool to scan and/or assign to devices will be 192.168.2.2 through 192.168.2.50, and each of these
addresses is listed in the IP Address listing at the bottom of the form. Individual address can be deleted from the
list by selecting the address, then clicking the
Delete
button. The entire range can be removed by clicking the
Delete All
button. Only the addresses shown in the IP Address List will be scanned.
Should future changes occur to the Subnet Mask, Gateway IP address or DNS server information for this subnet,
the
OK + Modify Devices
button may be used to perform a blanket change to the definition of this subnet.
After all IP address ranges for this subnet have been added to the pool of available addresses, click
OK
to exit
this form.
