不同于用于匹配流量的IP访问列表，IP前缀列表主要是用来指定具体的网络可达的。前缀列表用来匹配前缀（网段）和前缀长度（子网掩码）。前缀列表有两个参数很难理解。

下面是普通的前缀列表的参数：

ip prefix-list [name] [permit | deny] [prefix]/[len]
name为任意的名字或者数字，prefix是指定的路由前缀（网段），len是指定的前缀长度（子网掩码）。例子如下：

ip prefix-list LIST permit 1.2.3.0/24

上面的例子中指定匹配网段1.2.3.0，并且指定子网掩码为255.255.255.0，这个列表不匹配1.2.0.0/24，也不匹配1.2.3.4/32

ip prefix-list LIST permit 0.0.0.0/0

上面的例子指定匹配网段0.0.0.0和子网掩码0.0.0.0。这个列表用来匹配默认路由。

通常情况下，在使用前缀列表的时候加上“GE”（大于或等于）和“LE”（小于或等于）时比较容易发生混淆。这是因为当使用“GE”和“LE”时，列表的长度(len)发生了改变。

另外一种前缀列表的参数：

ip prefix-list [name] [permit | deny] [prefix]/[len] ge [min_length] le [max_length]

name为任意的名字或者数字，prefix是将要进行比较的路由前缀（网段），len是指从最左边开始的比特位，min_length为最小的子网掩码的值，max_length为最大的子网掩码的值

使用GE和LE，必须满足下面的条件：

len < GE <= LE

上面的参数很容易混淆，简单的说就是一个匹配前缀或子网的地址的范围。

看下面的例子：

ip prefix-list LIST permit 1.2.3.0/24 le 32

上面的例子表示前缀1.2.3.0前面的24位必须匹配。此外，子网掩码必须小于或等于32位

ip prefix-list LIST permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32

上面的例子意味着0位需要匹配，此外子网掩码必须小于或等于32位。一位所有的网段的掩码都小于或等于32位，并且一位都不用匹配，所以这句话等于permit any

ip prefix-list LIST permit 10.0.0.0/8 ge 21 le 29

上面的例子说明网段10.0.0.0的前8位必须匹配，此外子网掩码必须在21位和29位之间。

注意：

使用前缀列表不能像访问列表那样匹配具体的应用流。
前缀列表也不能用来具体匹配奇数或偶数的前缀，或什么可以被15整除的前缀
在前缀列表中，比特位必须是连续的，并且从左边开始
ip prefix-list fuck permit 0.0.0.0/0 ge 1 表示除了默认路由外的所有路由
ip prefix-list test16 seq 5 permit 0.0.0.0/1 ge 8 le 8 配置A类地址
ip prefix-list test16 seq 10 permit 128.0.0.0/2 ge 16 le 16 配置B类地址
ip prefix-list test16 seq 15 permit 192.0.0.0/3 ge 24 le 24 配置C类地址
