[TriLUG] RoadRunner and subnet masks

All:

Is there a simple way to determine the subnet mask of a RoadRunner connected device?  For whatever reason I can't see (or can't yet find) where in m0n0wall it would show me this.  I suspect TW is running all the latest fancy-pants protocols that a routing dinosaur like me has only read about.  Anyway, for what it's worth, my assigned ethernet address is 24.211.221.xxx.

What I would like to do is set up Snort to watch my routable RR address get pounded by bots and whatnot.  Kind of a "for fun" thing.  After reading the slashdot article about how fast an unpatched system can be compromised I would like to watch that in real time.
