I think in aliases it still generates a list of all of the addresses anyway. DOH!
Jep it does. It's just my inner monk/fanatic, that - with growing age - finds things like 172.20.12.64/26 much more satisfying then having a list of .60-.120 to set up as DHCP range and to have an alias to include the whole DHCP-range. Nothing wrong with using Aliases with .x-.y to auto-generate the list of IPs though, just my brain telling me "NO, that's much cleaner and more in line!" 😂
Also it is really practical when it comes to routing things via system routing table or IPsec P2 thingies to have them in CIDR boundaries but yeah, I totally get the decimal usage. Even still have it myself in my IOT VLAN with the whole bunch of WiFi Plugs and LEDs. The still have an order like 100-119 are plugs, 120-129 are dual-plugs, 150-159 are LEDs... yeah my brain hates and loves me for it 😁

It is interesting that we haven't taken to using pairs of hexadecimal values.
Actually... emm... I have - with IPv6 addresses and prefixes 🙈 Also matching trying to match those with IPv4 private IP counterparts for easier debugging and such...
sigh
Cheers :)
