> 192.168.1.1/24{3,5,9} translates to 192.168.1.1/243, 192.168.1.1/245 or > 192.168.1.1/249. Uh, at least, not in ipfw2 rulesets it doesn't. Where it does expand like that is in csh(1), bash(1), zsh(1) and similar shells (but not sh(1)): % echo 192.168.1.1/24{3,5,9} 192.168.1.1/243 192.168.1.1/245 192.168.1.1/249 Perhaps the original poster was typing the rules in at the command prompt? In which case, simply use a few quote marks to stop the shell interfering: # ipfw add 1000 permit all from '192.168.1.1/24{3,5,9}' Or load the rules out of a file.
