Mac OS X Server: GUI Does Not Support Non-Contiguous Subnet Mask
Network Preferences will not accept a subnet mask that is not contiguous so the configuration must be edited manually.
Symptom
An alert box appears with a message that the mask is not valid.
Solution
Manually edit
/etc/iftab
and change the subnet mask to the required one.
