route that creates the default gateway). Note that destination IP must be a
network ID. The default route uses a destination IP of 0.0.0.0. Refer to
Appendix 12 for an explanation of network ID.

Subnet Mask

Indicates which parts of the destination address refer to the network and
which parts refer to a computer on the network. Refer to Appendix 12, for an
