    Subnet mask issue?

    Several years ago, our network was established using 172.16.3.0 but was assigned a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 instead of 255.255.0.0 which seems a little odd to me. We have had no known network problems throughout the years using this. Now we have bought a device and it has been assigned...
