3.2 Installing the Virtual-IO Manager on a Windows-based CMS

In this window, specify which address range the Virtual-IO Manager should use for virtual MAC addresses. The virtual MAC addresses are assigned automatically in a profile for the LAN ports during the server pro- file definition.

Eight predefined MAC address ranges are available for selection, which do not overlap (MAC Address Range 1 to MAC Address Range 8). Each of these address ranges contains 8000 MAC addresses. If such a range is insufficient, you can also select a range double the size using MAC Address Range 1 and 2 to MAC Address Range 7 and 8. Each of these areas contains 16000 MAC addresses.

If you have an address range of your own that you wish to use for virtual MAC addresses, then select it in the Custom MAC Address Range drop-down menu. In this case, the fields in Custom MAC Address Range Parameters, in which you can enter the start and end MAC address of the address range, become active.
