this field in XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX format (X is any hexadecimal digit).

2)  If the new LAN IP Address you set is not in the same subnet, the IP Address pool of the DHCP 

server will change accordingly at the same time，while the Virtual Server and DMZ Host will 
not take effect until they are re-configured.
