In my company, the netmask is set as 255.255.0.0
but I can’t set it successfully.
Why?

Not a lot of info here by my guess is you’re trying to ‘supernet’.
If so, you’ll need to use the full stack.

you’ll have to use the large tcpip stack rather than the default tiny
stack… use io-net -d[your device driver name] -ptcpip (rather than
-pttcpip)

Using sth like “vi”, to edit the file “/etc/system/enum/include/net”,
change the “-pttcpip” to “-ptcpip”, save the file, make sure you
don’t have a “net~” or “net.bak” in the same directory.
