#
# CIDR-ADDRESS specifies the set of hosts the record matches.
# It is made up of an IP address and a CIDR mask that is an integer
-# between 0 and 32 (IPv6) or 128(IPv6) inclusive, that specifies
-# the number of significant bits in the mask, e.g. an IPv4 CIDR mask
-# of 8 is equivalent to an IP mask of 255.0.0.0, an IPv6 CIDR mask
-# of 64 is equivalent to an IP mask of ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::. A
-# IPv4 CIDR mask of 32 is used for single hosts. Also, you can use a
+# (between 0 and 32 (IPv6) or 128(IPv6) inclusive) that specifies
+# the number of significant bits in the mask Also, you can use a
# separate IP address and netmask to specify the set of hosts.
