whereas a set of subnet options applies to just the clients on a specified subnet.

Boot File

Enter the name of the boot file used with this pool. Boot files (Boot Protocol) can be used to boot remote
systems over the network. BOOTP messages are encapsulated inside UDP messages so requests and
replies can be forwarded. Each pool can use a different file as needed.

BOOTP Next Server

Provide the numerical IP address of the server providing BOOTP resources.

Enable Unicast

Unicast packets are sent from one location to another location (there's just one sender, and one receiver).
Select this option to forward unicast messages to just a single device within the network pool. This setting
is disabled by default.

NetBIOS Node Type

Set the NetBIOS Node Type used with this pool. The following types are available:
Broadcast - Uses broadcasting to query nodes on the network for the owner of a NetBIOS name.
Peer-to-Peer - Uses directed calls to communicate with a known NetBIOS name server, such as a WINS
server, for the IP address of a NetBIOS machine.
Mixed - Mixed uses broadcasted queries to find a node, and failing that, queries a known p-node name
server for the address.
Hybrid - Is a combination of two or more nodes.
Undefined - No NetBIOS Node Type is used.

NetBIOS Servers

Specify a numerical IP address of a single or group of NetBIOS WINS servers available to wireless
clients.
