 +===== IPv4 CIDR Notation =====
 +
 +An additional comparison format was introduced in v3.17 (Feb-9-2017) specifically for partial (ranges of) IPv4 address matching following standard [[wp>Classless_Inter-Domain_Routing]] (CIDR) notation. For example, rather than using the comparison string "192.168.1.*" to match all IP addresses that begin with the first 3 octets of 192, 168, and 1, you could specify the same thing using CIDR notation:
 +  192.168.1.0/24
      
 +This enables the flexibility of filtering ranges of IP addresses based on sub-networks that are not multiples of 8-bits (e.g. "192.168.1.33/30") and the format is compatible with commonly available regional block lists.
 +
 +All 4 octets of the IPv4 address must be specified in the CIDR comparison string (i.e. "192.168.1/24" is **not** a valid CIDR comparison string).
 +
 +CIDR comparisons beginning with the negation prefix (''!'') **are** supported (reverses the IP address comparison logic).
 +
 +IPv6 CIDR notation is not supported at this time.
