Figure 8-2 Host Registration format
Hosts can be written in the following formats:
The domain name (example:hp.com)
Part of the domain name (example: hp)
The whole IPv4 and IPv6 address (example: 10.1.2.3 127.0.0.1
2001::123:4567:89ab:cdef)
Part of the IPv4 address (example: 10.1 which, in this case, means 10.1.0.0/16)
IPv4 Network/Netmask format (example: 10.1.0.0/255.255.0.0)
IPv4 and IPv6 Network/c (CIDR notation: c is a decimal integer that indicates the number
of bits for identifying a network) (example: 10.1.0.0/16 2001:0:0:1230::/64)
If you want to specify two or more hosts in a command line for allow from, delimit the hosts
with a space.
Multiple lines can be used to specify hosts for allow from.
Be sure to specify order in accordance with the specified format. If extra spaces or tabs are
inserted, operation will fail.
