the IP addressing plan for your network and cannot be accessed from the Internet. IP
addresses within the following ranges are not routable from the Internet (regardless of
whether a firewall is configured:
◦ 10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255
◦ 172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255
◦ 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255
◦ 169.254.0.0 – 169.254.255.255
You can also assign a subnet mask and network gateway for each CMMmicro.
