Hi;

Is there a class that holds an IP address and a mask? I thought there would
be but cannot find it.

Hello,

at least Exchange saves it's serverbindings as strings, in the format
[dnsname_or_ipaddress]:[port]:[hostheader], where [dnsname_or_ipaddress] or
[hostheader] can even be empty.

So I guess, there is none...

Best regards,
Henning Krause

I built my own and it was easy. I just didn't want to duplicate an existing
class and figured there probably was one. Now I know to stick with my class.

Dave,

FYI, if you want to retrieve the subnet mask of a system's installed
networks, you may want to use following approach:

#Durgaprasad Gorti's WebLog : Getting SubnetMask through
System.Net.NetworkInformation

I agree that building a class represents an IP and a mask is easy since a
mask can be actually represented by an instance of IPAddress too.

Hope this helps.
