Wrong, the pool (as of ComOS 3.5) allows you to change the pool size
to whatever you want using the "set pool" command. It is not 30 period.
This is to accomodate PM-3's but also is quite functional on 2e30's. The
individual I was responding to was advocating a "set pool" to 32 which
WOULD have resulted in overlapping pool assignments since the first
machine was starting 2 machines over a /27 subnet address (.2).
