Function
The network command sets a network segment address for a global address pool.
The undo network command restores the default network segment address.
By default, no network segment address is specified.

Usage Guidelines
Usage Scenario
This command applies to DHCP servers. Before a DHCP server assigns IP addresses to clients from a global address pool, run the network command to set a network segment address for the global address pool so that the DHCP server can select and assign IP addresses on this network segment to clients. When a DHCP server assigns an IP address to the client from the interface address pool, the network segment of the interface IP address is that of the interface address pool.
Precautions
Each IP address pool can be configured with only one network segment. If the system needs multiple address segments, multiple IP address pools are required.
The size of an address pool can be controlled by setting the mask length. The mask length is in reverse proportion to the address pool size.
When configuring an address pool, ensure that IP addresses on the network address segment must be class A, B, or C IP addresses, and the mask cannot be set to 0, 1, 31, or 32.
