For example, the address 10.0.0.0 and mask 0.255.255.255 match all IP addresses
that begin with 10 in the first octet.
The ACL mask must be a contiguous set of zeroes starting from the first bit. For
example, 0.255.255.255, 0.0.255.255, and 0.0.0.255 are valid ACL masks.
However, 0.255.0.255 is not a valid ACL mask.
User Globs, MAC Address Globs, and VLAN Globs
Name “globbing” is a way of using a wildcard pattern to expand a single element
into a list of elements that match the pattern. UNIVERGE WL Control System
accepts user globs, MAC address globs, and VLAN globs. The order in which
globs appear in the configuration is important, because once a glob is matched,
processing stops on the list of globs.
User Globs
A user glob is shorthand method for matching an authentication, authorization,
and accounting (AAA) command to either a single user or a set of users.
A user glob can be up to 80 characters long and cannot contain spaces or tabs. The
double-asterisk (**) wildcard characters with no delimiter characters match all
usernames. The single-asterisk (*) wildcard character matches any number of
characters up to, but not including, a delimiter character in the glob. Valid user
glob delimiter characters are the at (@) sign and the period (.).
For example, the following globs identify the following users:
User Glob User(s) Designated
jose@example.com User jose at example.com
*@example.com All users at example.com whose usernames do
not contain periods—for example,
jose@example.com and tamara@example.com,
but not nin.wong@example.com, because
nin.wong contains a period
*@marketing.example.com All marketing users at example.com whose
usernames do not contain periods
