Putting a Hex on Address Range Filters
In most cases when we build address filters, we look for all traffic to and from a specific address, or pair of addresses. At times we want all the traffic for a given subnet or MAC OUI, so OmniPeek allows address filters with asterisk (*) wildcards. We can also use "slash" notation to specify subnets (e.g. 10.10.7.0/24 for a 24-bit subnet mask). Yet these methods aren’t always specific enough to filter for a particular set of nodes.
