subnet mask
Used to subdivide an assigned network address into additional subnetworks by using
some of the unassigned bits to designate local network addresses. Subnet masking
facilitates routing by identifying the network of the local host. The subnet mask is a
required configuration parameter for an IP host.
A local bit mask (set of flags) that specifies which bits of the IP address specify a particular
IP network or a host within a subnetwork
.
Used to "mask" a portion of an IP address so
that TCP/IP can determine whether any given IP address is on a local or remote network.
Each computer configured with TCP/IP must have a subnet mask defined.

contain a virus. You can choose what action to take when a suspicious attachment is

positives to Symantec. Depending on how you configure the plug-in, user submissions can
also be sent automatically to a local system administrator. The Symantec Outlook Spam
Plug-in also gives users the option to administer their own Allowed Senders List and
Blocked Senders List, and to specify their own language identification settings. See also
