According to my phrasbook maskent means alias, so mask could be a shortcut.

My little Hungarian phrasebook says "helyett" means "instead of." I
don't know what "mask." means. Anyone? In one record, both are used:

I would interpret MASKEP, OR MASKEPPEN or MASKULONBEN as in other words,
or, otherwise
