Not the same > thing. Hostname is before the IP address is resolved. You're right that host names and IP addresses are not the same thing, but the saned manual page says: The access list is a list of host names, IP addresses or IP subnets (CIDR notation) It doesn't say they are the same thing. It just says that you can use whatever combination of these three is most convenient for you. > And "192.168.2.12/29" which only gives you a single IP > address with its subnet mask. Using that would allow access from all eight IPv4 addresses that have the same 29 initial bits as 192.168.2.12. Please note that the CIDR notation was introduced exactly to allow addressing on arbitrary bit boundaries.
