Mark - Thank you for that example. We were just using the perfSONAR
Testpoint bundle during a workshop and wanted to allow UDP tests from
hosts on our subnet. If anyone is interested what we did is here:

http://prp.ucsd.edu:8080/prpworkshop/materials/limits.conf

btw... If this is not the way to do this I'd love to hear that as well.

Thanks,
        - Hervey

PS - The two changes from the default file are:

new "identifier"

{
"name": "local-lan",
"description": "Requests coming from the local network",
"type": "ip-cidr-list",
"data": {
"cidrs": [ "137.164.48.0/24" ]
}
},

and adding "local-lan" to "friendlies"

{
"name": "friendlies",
"description": "Identifiers we find friendly",
"identifiers": [ "local-interfaces", "local-lan" ]
},
