   netmask
  
      A 32-bit {bit mask} which shows how an {Internet

      parts.   The netmask has ones in the bit positions in the 32-bit address which are to be used for the network and subnet
      parts, and zeros for the host part.   The mask should contain
      at least the standard network portion (as determined by the
      address's {class}), and the subnet field should be contiguous
      with the network portion.
  
      If a `+' (plus sign) is given for the netmask value, then the

      (or in the /etc/netmasks) file if not running the NIS service.
