netmask

netmask
This is a read-write object and valid values are IPv4-subnetmasks.

Datatype-Help:
the ip-subnet-address should looks like this: A.B.C.D
or use a single number for the number of bits to be set to 1.
a subnet mask is used to get the network-address from an IP address.
example: 255.255.128.0
those 4 numbers should be imagined as bits
on this example the bits are: 11111111.11111111.10000000.00000000
on the left side must begin with 1's
on the right side must end with 0's
