Scope summary form

The scope summary form shows all the scopes on your system. Scopes are logical groupings of IP addresses associated with a specific subnet mask. IP addresses are allocated from scopes when IP-based sites are created. Scopes and IP addresses are not used when name-based sites are created.

On the scopes summary form you can perform several tasks and view the following information:
