This is not correct, the subnet mask does not have to have all the 1's on the left. Admittedly almost all do, and some implementations require it, but the standards do not.
I was wondering about that, as I'm looking into a DLS setup that offers five static IP numbers. So I imagine it's five numbers out of a subnet. I'm unclear how to configure such a thing. I assume I can't use the 192.168.x.x/24 notation, and have to have a specific net mask instead.
Anyone know how that "Five IP DSL" connection would look and be configured?
You have five available addresses on your side of the DSL device.
The DSL device itself has an address on your side. (It probably has another, different address on the other side. It's a router. Each port on a router has its own address.)
Not here in the Calif usually. Every setup I have seen so far has been bridged. The gateway IP is at the other end of the DSL connection and there are no IPs in the DSL customer device. Every ISP I have called that works with Pacbell or GTE has been bridging for small networks.
