Inverse masks are loopy. Just think the opposite a subnet maks. Instead of
contiguous bit from left to right these are contiguous bits right to left.
wildcard masks and inverse masks are different.
I don't think you use inverse masks for EIGRP or IGRP though as you have
that network statement. "network 10.0.0.0 0.7.255.255 area 0"
