addresses (for example 192.168.1.10 to 192.169.1.50), a pool of IP address or

any IP address? Select an option from the drop-down list box that includes: Any

IP, Single IP, IP Range and IP Pool.

Enter the single IP address here. This field is only available when Single IP is

selected as the Address Type.

Start IP Address

Enter the starting IP address in a range here. This field is only available when IP

Range is selected as the Address Type.

End IP Address

Enter the ending IP address in a range here. This field is only available when IP

Range is selected as the Address Type.

The IP Pool list gathers its IPs from entries in the ARP table. The ARP table
