Assign network or broadcast address to an interface

Hello,

I wonder how I can assign a reservered IP address to an interface through
the UI. Right now I get those annoying warnings about "not possible to assign
an address of all zeroes or ones" when I f.ex. assign a subnet address to a
NIC.

However, if I use netsh to assign a subnet address it works almost
perfectly. But then again I get those warnings once I open the lan
configuration which is very annoying since it won't let me change anything
except through netsh.

Is it somehow possible to disable this warning? Yes, I know that a network
address is normally reserved, but new equipment mostly has no problems with
such addresses.
