Specifying a range includes up to five fields, separated by tabs or spaces:

`<range_value> <range_type> <discovery_status> <ping_sweep_ind> <Virtual_Network_Name>`

Values in each field:

`<range_value>                     `ipv4 or ipv6 prefix

`<range_type>                      `CIDR|RANGE|WILDCARD (constant)

`<discovery_status>                `INCLUDE|IGNORE|EXCLUDE (constant)

`<ping_sweep_ind>                 ` TRUE|FALSE (constant)

`<Virtual_Network_Name>           `  Virtual network name

  
In all examples, the `CIDR`, `RANGE` and `WILDCARD` keywords are optional.

`INCLUDE`, `IGNORE` and `EXCLUDE` are optional. If not specified, `INCLUDE` is assumed.

Examples:

`10.1.1.1/24 CIDR EXCLUDE FALSE GREEN`

`10.1.1.1/24 INCLUDE TRUE GREEN `

`fe80:0:0:0:0:0:ac10:100/113 INCLUDE `

`fe80::ac10:1ff/128 EXCLUDE `

`10.1.1.1-10.1.1.255 RANGE EXCLUDE`

`172.16.1.1-172.16.1.255 EXCLUDE`

`fe80:0:0:0:0:0:ac10:100/113-fe80:0:0:0:0:0:ac10:1ff/128 RANGE EXCLUDE `

`fe80::ac10:100/113-fe80::ac10:1ff/128 RANGE EXCLUDE`
