Remus,

I suggest we find a better way to do what you are trying to do.  Using
an entire card defined as HOME_NET is not recommended.

You should definitely set your HOME_NET to be your IP range.  (var
HOME_NET [192.168.0.0/16]) for example.  What are you trying to do, and
maybe we can help you find a better solution.
