Is there a way to list a range to allow/disallow?

If I choose "localnets", I suspect that will only include those
machines on the local network of the QDNS server, and won't include
any machines behind a router/firewall that use a local network (ie,
real IP address 205.238.x.y on the same subnet as QDNS is the public
address for all machines behind the router/firewall, with IPs
192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255). So I would therefore have to manually
enter up to 255 "allows" for each such local network?

I'm seeing a lot of activity in the logs that I don't think should be there...
