How can we create a network using a different CIDR than the default?

You can create a network with a different CIDR by specifying the Gateway and Netmask fields during network creation.

Example

By inputting:

• Gateway: 10.1.2.1
• Netmask: 255.255.255.0

The system generates a network designated as 10.1.2.0/24.

This approach allows administrators to customize their network architecture beyond the default CIDR allocation, enabling flexible network design within the American Cloud platform. To get the gateway and netmask for another block, use the CIDR calculator.
