Options to choose from are: • Broadcast - This system uses broadcasts. • Peer To Peer - This system (p-node) uses only point-to- point name queries to a name server (WINS). • Mixed - This system (m-node) broadcasts first, and then queries the name server. • Hybrid - This system (h-node) queries the name server first, and then broadcasts. This is the recommended type. Enter and select the lease time for an IPv4 address that is assigned from the address pool here. Enter the Days in the range from 0 to 365.
