There is no "magical" netmask that will allow you to connect to these
other subnets. You need routes to get to these networks. For example, if
another system with IP address 192.168.3.5 has a second interface with
the address 192.168.4.1 assigned (and routes between the two networks),
then you would do something like:

# route add -net 192.168.4.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.3.5

to be able to talk to systems on the 192.168.4.0/24 network.

What's the ``24'' at the end of that address.

It's a 2 followed by a 4
