    be careful when assigning AppleTalk cable ranges and the not manually, it is
    very easy to assign information that Macs the AppleTalk step on other setups
    and cause even more problems. I do not have any more info other than in one
    of our routers we had AppleTalk configured in that manner, and it caused
    Zones to disappear until we fixed it and made each zone have it's own cable
    range.
