Entries in that field must be IP address *ranges* with netmask. One 
entry per line.

So if you want to add (for example) the IP 8.8.8.8 to that list, you 
would add this in a new line below the existing entry:

8.8.8.8/32

In your example with "127.0.0.1/32" already present, the content in that 
field would then look like this:

127.0.0.1/32
8.8.8.8/32

Or if you want to whitelist a whole range such as 8.8.0.0/16, then your 
input field would look like this:

127.0.0.1/32
8.8.0.0/16

In these auto-grow input fields (multi-line fields) the BlueOnyx GUI 
(since 5207R) no longer accepts a line terminator at the end. In the 
past (in the old framed GUI) these fields indeed did have a comma at the 
end. But this is no longer the case in the current GUI.
