6248 : VLAN routing access control
Hello,
On the 62xx series, web interface page Switching > Network Security > Access Control Lists > IP Access Control Lists > Rule Configuration
it discusses Wild Card Mask
We see in page 304 of the User Manual
"Wild Card Mask — Specifies the source IP address wildcard mask. Wild card masks determines which bits are used and which bits are ignored. A wild card mask of 255.255.255.255 indicates that no bit is important. A wildcard of 0.0.0.0 indicates that all of the bits are important. This field is required when Source IP Address is checked."
Our example:
if we have subnet 192.168.200.0 / 24 and we want to restrict subnet access to remote host 192.168.100.45
We believe the rule would be:
source: 192.168.200.0, wild card: 0.0.0.255 - and - dest: 192.168.100.45, wild card 0.0.0.0
Is this correct or did we mis-understand the manual.
Thank you in advance for your help,

Hi,
Yes, you are using the wildcard mask correctly. We use the same rules as Cisco for wildcard mask, so the various wildcard mask calculators online should work as well.
