NETWORK_ADDRESS = 192.168.1.100 should be NETWORK_ADDRESS =
192.168.1.0

No need to provide NETWORK_SIZE = 30 as well. It's superfluous. I guess
what you want to do here is limit the amount of ip's to be used in this
lan to "30".

You could use:

IP_START        = 192.168.1.100
IP_END        = 10.10.10.130
