Description
This field specifies the lowest and highest addresses in the 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.
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.
