Configuring a Static Address Pool

Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to create a

static address pool and specify the network information for the pool. The

network information configured in the static address pool is assigned only to

the host with the hardware address or client identifier that matches the

information configured in the static pool.

01c8.1924.88f1.77 where 01 represents the Ethernet media
