Static IP Address Entry Fields
Field Description
IP Address The Internet is a collection of networks with users that communicate with each other. Each
communication carries the address of the source and destination networks and the particular
machine within the network associated with the user or host computer at each end. This
address is called the IP address (Internet Protocol address). Each node on the IP network
must be assigned a unique IP address that is made up of a network identifier and a host
identifier. Enter the IP address as a dotted-decimal notation with the decimal value of each
octet separated by a period, for example, 192.168.7.27.
Subnet Mask Most TCP/IP networks use subnets to manage routed IP addresses. Dividing an
organization's network into subnets allows it to connect to the Internet with a single shared
network address, for example, 255.255.255.0.
