netmask for a single computer: 255.255.255.255, or /32

netmask for a class A subnet: 255.0.0.0, or /8

netmask for a class B subnet: 255.255.0.0, or /16

netmask for a class C subnet: 255.255.255.0, or /24

netmask including all IP addresses: 0.0.0.0

Valid IP address and netmask formats include:

x.x.x.x/x.x.x.x, such as 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0

x.x.x.x/x, such as 192.168.1.0/24

Note: An IP address 0.0.0.0 with netmask 255.255.255.255 is not a valid source or

destination address.

When representing hosts by an IP range, the range indicates hosts with continuous IP

addresses in a subnet, such as 192.168.1.[2-10], or 192.168.1.* to indicate the

complete range of hosts on that subnet. Valid IP range formats include:

x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x, such as 192.168.110.100-192.168.110.120

x.x.x.[x-x], such as 192.168.110.[100-120]

x.x.x.*, such as 192.168.110.*

You can add the local host ID that identifies the FortiGate unit for WAN optimization and

add the peer host ID and IP address of each FortiGate unit with which a FortiGate unit can

create WAN optimization tunnels.

To configure WAN optimization peers, go to WAN Opt. & Cache > Peer.
