core: frontend: Add option to set custom subnet mask in network creation UI
Current behaviour
Describe what you see: Currently, when configuring a network in BlueOS via the web interface, users can specify an IP address—but there’s no option to explicitly set the subnet mask (e.g. /24 vs /16).
Why that is bad: Without the ability to adjust the subnet mask, integrating BlueOS into larger or segmented networks becomes difficult
Expected or desired behaviour
Explain what you expect: Add a field to the network configuration interface that allows users to explicitly specify the subnet mask—either in CIDR notation (e.g., /24) or in full dotted‑decimal format (e.g., 255.255.255.0).
Why: This option empowers users to configure networks according to project or organizational needs.
Prerequisites
- [x] I have checked to make sure that a similar request has not already been filed or fixed.
@joaomariolago does this make sense to include in the network management rework you're investigating, or is it better handled after/independently?
