Hello all

Just a quick query from me...

I've recently discovered that I'm seeing some traffic pre-NAT, and
that I should add a few RFC1918 networks to my HOME_NET.

Does adding say, 192.168.0.0/16 versus
192.168.22.0/24
192.168.23.0/24
have significant impacts on RAM usage or overall performance?

Nope!
