           Summary: 172.245.13.X doesn't appear properly in output of
                    iptables -L
           Product: iptables
           Version: 1.4.x
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: Debian GNU/Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: iptables

Tried to dynamically add 172.245.13.130 to my list via "iptables -I INPUT -s
"172.245.13.130" -j DROP", and the command appeared to work fine.  But then
when I tried to verify via "iptables -L", the rule shows up with only a "." in
the source field.  The fourth octet can be anything; same result.  If the
first, second, or third octet varies, then the result of iptables -L is as
expected.  But something like 172.245.13.0/24 shows up in iptables -L as "./24"

This was initially disconcerting, as it seemed the block I was trying to drop
was not being accepted.  However, it appears to be a display problem only. 
When I did an iptables-save, the rule appeared in the output as it was entered.

I tried this on multiple machines (CentOS, RedHat, Ubuntu, Debian) of varying
OS vintages, and on x86_64 and i386. It was reproducible on all of them.  The
most recent is the latest Debian (7.0.0) with iptables v1.4.14.

Hope I'm not missing something obvious.

Thank you,
Tim
