No.

Of you're trying to specify a whole network you would type "10.0.0.0/8", which would cover everything in "10.x.x.x" ... whereas "10.0.0.0/24" would cover everything in "10.0.0.x"

Unless you've intentionally segmented your network, you're probably just running a /24, which is relatively normal, meaning everything in your network is "10.0.0.x"

I just installed snort ( or at least it is in process) and it is asking me about the address range of the network. So I ran ifconfig and see that it is on the 10 network. I know I could put any numbers in there but I want to understand.... I'm thinking I will put 10.0.0.2/8. Will that work? Why will it or not work.
