Adding Excluded Addresses
To exclude an address:
1 Open the Network Properties page.
2 Click Add Excluded Addresses to display the Add Excluded Addresses
page.
3 In the From field, enter the first IP address to exclude from any configured
address pool.
4 If the address in the From field is the only address to exclude, or if the
excluded addresses are non-contiguous, leave the To field as the default
value of 0.0.0.0. Otherwise, enter the last IP address to excluded from a
contiguous range of IP addresses.
In Figure 32-3, the From field contains the IP address 192.168.2.1, and the
To field contains the IP address 192.168.2.5. This means that the following
IP addresses are not available for lease:
• 192.168.2.1
• 192.168.2.2
• 192.168.2.3
• 192.168.2.4
• 192.168.2.5
