The 'range' denotes IP addresses that can be allocated to clients.
The IP 192.255.255.255 is a reserved broadcast address for the network.

It's definitely "bad idea" to try to use it, but it doesn't explain the
core dump.
Also, using DHCP to dish out addresses that don't belong to you AND
aren't on a private network (as defined by IANA) will probably lead to
trouble. Valid private address ranges are:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (private class A)
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (private class B x 16)
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (private class C x 256)
Which block you use is really a matter of taste - classes haven't been
used in routing for quite a while so you can consider them all as
straight blocks but I (for one) still treat them as classed just to help
me visualise what's what. For example, I'll use one class C per site to
prevent conflicts over VPN.
192.0.0.0/24 addresses are allocated to real hosts on the wider
internet, although IIRC some of the lower ones are reserved for use in
documentation (like example.com) - is that where the idea came from?!? :-)
