technically, thats not correct.  You would also look at 10.5.0.0 and 
10.5.4.255 which don't fit in the range specified.  For the most part,
that will work, but if you want to be exact, you need:

var HOME_NET 
[10.5.0.1/32,10.5.0.2/31,10.5.0.4/30,10.5.0.8/29,10.5.0.16/28,10.5.0.32/27,10.5.0.64/26,10.5.0.128/25,10.5.1.0/24,10.5.2.0/23,10.5.4.0/25,10.5.4.128/26,10.5.4.192/27,10.5.4.224/28,10.5.4.240/29,10.5.4.248/30,10.5.4.252/31,10.5.4.254/32]

aggregate is your friend.  (echo 10.5.0.1 - 10.5.4.254 | aggregate -i range)
