Rule creation: difference between subnet and address?

[davidemiccone]

When I create a rule I can define for source/destination a "LAN address or a LAN subnet", both don't let me setup any other information.
Which is the difference?

Hi David,

The LAN Address sis the actual address of your LAN interface, LAN subnet is all the IP's on the same subnet as your LAN Interface. These are short hands to save you having to enter the actual details.

If you want to enter the details yourself pick "Single host or alias", or "Network" from the list instead.
