Hi James,
NMMGR and the HP3000 is correct 192.168.0.x is a class C network subnet. I copied the below information from a internet search.
Address ranges to be use by private networks are:
Class A: 10.0. 0.0 to 10.255. 255.255.
Class B: 172.16. 0.0 to 172.31. 255.255.
Class C: 192.168. 0.0 to 192.168. 255.255 <-- This is class C by name, but it has a 255.255.0.0 range. Weird!
I fired up a demo HP3000 and configured the HP3000 as follows and it validated correctly.

As far as I can determine I have configured NMMGR correctly. The IP address assigned has a net-mask value of 255.255.0.0. However, the gateway configuration does not recognize 192.168.0.1 as belonging to the net-block of the assigned IPv4 address.
I note that a C class value is displayed in both the node and gateway IP address fields, and this cannot be changed.
