+						<para>IP addresses may have a subnet mask appended. The subnet
+						mask may be written in either CIDR or dotted-decimal
+						notation. Separate the IP address and subnet mask with a slash
 						('/'). A source port can also be specified by adding a colon (':')
 						after the address but before the subnet mask, e.g.
