# tabdump networks #netname,net,mask,mgtifname,gateway,dhcpserver,tftpserver,nameservers,n tpservers,logservers,dynamicrange,staticrange,staticrangeincrement,node hostname,ddnsdomain,vlanid,domain,mtu,comments,disable "148_187_x_0- 255_255_255_0","148.187.x.0","255.255.255.0","ens192","148.187.x.x",,"1 48.187.x.xx",,,,,,,,,,,"1500",, lcg.cscs.ch is using another subnet.
