pool, up to a maximum range of 254 addresses. For example,
if the LAN port is assigned IP address 192.168.1.1, then you
could create a pool with address range 192.168.1.2 –
192.168.1.254 for distribution to your LAN computers.
Mac Address: A MAC address is a manufacturer-assigned hardware ID that
is unique for each device on a network. Use this field only if
you want to assign a specific IP address to the computer that
uses this MAC address. If you type a
MAC address
here, you
must have specified the same IP address in both the [Start IP
Address:] and [End IP Address:] fields.
