I agree not sure why someone would do that but Believe it or not it helped to 
clarify for me.

Needless to say that does not look good :) If I recall correctly, IOS won't 
accept such entry in prefix-list, "le y" should not be lower than value 
specified with "/x".

That means "I want to match networks with 201.2 in the first two octets, but

So is this valid?

201.2.0.0/16<http://201.2.0.0/16> means 201.2/16 subnet only, exactly this 
prefix, first 16 bits have to be 201.2 and subnet mask must be set to 
255.255.0.0  (in JunOS route-lists there is an "exact" word for that). Exactly 
what you have specified and nothing else.
201.2.0.0/16<http://201.2.0.0/16> le 32 means that the first two octets still 
have to be 201.2, but subnet masks can vary from /16 up to /32, which means 
that it covers also subnets falling into 201.2/16 range. Match 201.2/16, don't 
care about last two octets, but subnet mask must fall into <255.255.0.0; 
255.255.255.255> range.

Prefix lists are still getting me.

In this task I did not use the le 32 and the end of my entries.   Not sure I 
understand why I would need that

Example

Ip prefix-list Ed permit 201.2.0.0/16<http://201.2.0.0/16>  <-- what I used
Ip prefix-list EIGRP permit 201.2.0.0/16<http://201.2.0.0/16> le 32  <-- answer 
key used


Ed,
