Pool Size

this count is less than the number that you have entered, you have address ranges that
overlap.
Server IP Address The IP Protocol - Server IP Address screen has the following settings:
The Server requires an IP address that uniquely identifies the unit to the IP network.
The Perle 833IS supports a number of ways of acquiring this IP address:
You can configure an IP address.
If you are managing your network IP addresses on either a BOOTP or RARP
server, you can set the IP address there. The Perle 833IS can acquire the IP
address from a BOOTP or RARP server if it has been configured from within
these servers. You will need the MAC address of the Perle 833IS to do this. This
address can be obtained from the Front Panel.
Use BOOTP
When checked, the 833IS will attempt to acquire the Server IP address from a
BOOTP server.
