Subnetting is a process often used to divide a TCP/IP network
into different logical networks. This process requires special
considerations to be taken when installing the XNIC. The
following subnetting example is provided to illustrate these
considerations and procedures.
Consider the following situation:
The subnet mask is 255.255.255.224, which subdivides a
class B network into smaller networks consisting of a
maximum of 30 nodes each.
You want to install a printer that is on a different network
than the workstation.
The printer address is node 29 on network 129.9.62.96.
The workstation is node 27 on network 129.9.61.224.
The gateway is node 25 on network 129.9.62.97.
