10.Specify the IP address of the workstation controller in the field
Controller’s
IP address
. The first usable address of the allocated subnet is used. In this

In Figure 72 on page 162, notice that the DHCP configuration dialog has
already calculated the correct IP address range. The dialog calculated this
range based on the network ID and the IP address that you supplied for
the twinax workstation controller. You can change the subnet mask on this
dialog and have the DHCP configuration GUI calculate the new values for
you. However, remember, in this scenario, that the maximum number of
addresses that can be allocated to the twinax subnet is 64.
