I believe your current omask will work; try it and see.

I use
        omask="255.255.255.0"
        onet=`ifconfig fxp0 | grep "inet " | awk '{print $2}'`/24
        oip=`ifconfig fxp0 | grep "inet " | awk '{print $2}'`
You could probably simplify that with
        oip=`ifconfig fxp0 | grep "inet " | awk '{print $2}'`
        onet=${oip}/24
but I haven't tried it.
