netmask & defaultrout not set in Jumpstart

Hi,
I have a sol10 jumpstart/Jet server that has been used to boot
numerous machines so far.

Now I have added and configured a second network drop onto this server
(to be used as a private management vlan for ALL machines) . My target
server is on this management vlan but it dies after it configures the
bge0 interface.

It appears that it is not setting the netmask correctly. It should be
255.255.252.0 and it is setting it to 255.255.255.0

Would anyone know why the netmask is changing or better yet, how I can
get the netmask to be 255.255.252.0 ????

Thanks,
George
