These days, all private IP addressing is classless, so use whatever
subnet-mask you like.  255.255.255.0 is fine for small home networks, or
255.255.0.0 if you've got corporate ambitions and might exceed 253 computers!

Main point is that it should be the same on all devices, as its value
determines the broadcast address.
