Netmask

Specify a range that falls on subnet boundaries.
Most TCP/IP networks use subnets in order to manage routed IP
addresses. For the range specified in From and To, Windows 2000
calculates the closest matching subnet. The range of addresses in
the closest matching subnet may exceed the range specified.
Unless the addresses specified in From and To are subnet
boundaries, the range based on the calculated subnet will be larger
than the range specified. To avoid this, specify a range that falls on
subnet boundaries, For example, if you are using the 10.0.0.0
private network ID for your intranet, a range that falls on subnet
boundaries is 10.0.1.168 to 10.0.1.175. Or, if you are using the
192.168.0.0 private network ID for your intranet, a range that falls
on subnet boundaries is 192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255. See your
Network Administrator for further information.

Gateway

A service that allows Firefly to connect to other servers. Creating a
gateway also allows client computers running only Microsoft client
software to access server resources through the gateway. See your
Network Administrator for further information.

Nameserver

The IP address for the server, local or ISP, that handles URL name
resolution for the network. Contact you system administrator for
this information.
