7. If you have a local area connection, type the appropriate mask information in the
Subnet mask box.
n A subnet mask is a 32-bit number that is notated by using four numbers from
0–255, separated by periods.
n Typically, default subnet mask numbers use either 0 or 255 as values, such as
255.255.255.0.
n However, other numeric values can appear, indicating that the subnet is
configured for a single TCP/IP network.
n This number, with a value other than 0 or 255, is combined with the IP address
number to identify the network on which your computer resides.
8. If necessary, update the IP Connection Metric.
n The metric indicates the cost of using the routes associated with this connection
and becomes the value in the Metric column for those routes in the IP routing
table.
n If there are multiple routes to a destination the route with the lowest metric is
used. The default value is 1.
9. Repeat steps 1–3 for any other IP addresses you wish to add.
