Re: Change Subnet Mask

[Pete Helgren <Pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If all you are changing is the subnet mask, as long as the other TCP 
settings will still work with the new subnet, you should just be able to 
end the TCPIP interface, change the subnet, and restart the interface.  
No need to end the TCP IP stack or the adapter.
