Setting static IPv4 address says "has host bits set."
Mia Lopez
My dedicated server comes with 4 usable ip addresses and this is all the info they sent me.
System IP: 69.30.212.170/29
Usable IP Range: 69.30.212.170 - 69.30.212.174
Gateway: 69.30.212.169
Subnet Mask:255.255.255.248However, when I put the system IP into the subnet, (subnet mask doesn't work either) it says "has host bits set". Here is a screenshot:
Is there anything I can do to fix this? If there is, what is it?

I got the problem. Enter there
69.30.212.168/29Hosts bits should be unset.
Your hosts bits are the last 3 bits. If you set them to 0, that will get 168.
