Hello,

Thanks for the many years of support for DNSMasq I have used it for a long time 
as a filter for most of my machines and servers.

Currently I think DNSMasq has the ability to sinkhole all domains on an IP using 
the bogus-nxdomain feature.

We would like to be able to make all domains on whole networks sinkhole / return 
NXDOMAIN.

So if bogus-nxdomain could be updated to accept a network cidr I think that 
would work.

This would be a powerful feature for helping everyone weed out malious domains 
in bulk from known bad networks.

I would like to use it with the spamhaus DROP list (A list of bad network 
blocks) to make all domains (known and currently unknown) on those networks 
disappear.

This would also help stop the new evil CNAME redirector networks by allowing us 
to bogus-nxdomain the end network even with the badguys changing domains/ 
subdomains regularly.

thanks

Matt
