Tip of the day: Exempt your IP address from bans, just in case you or a fellow IRCOp accidentally GLINES you.

CIDR

From UnrealIRCd documentation wiki

UnrealIRCd supports the CIDR notation when allowing/disallowing IP's. This can be used in bans, allow blocks, oper::mask, etc. etc. If you prefer to use CIDR, you can use it.

An example of CIDR would be 127.0.0.0/8 which matches 127.0.0.0 through 127.255.255.255. In this example we could just as easily have written 127.*.
