I have just committed the iprange match in the netfilter cvs as a base patch in patch-o-matic. The new match makes possible to match source/destination IP addresses against inclusive IP address ranges. Examples: iptables -A FORWARD -m iprange --src-range 192.168.1.5-192.168.1.124 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -m iprange --dst-range 10.0.0.0-10.5.255.255.255 -j ACCEPT Visit http://www.netfilter.org on how to access the cvs repository.
