Daniel,
The original question was "How to configure MAC filter to allow address
starting with 4000.2200.xxxx." Yves' solution was: 4000.2200.0000 mask
ffff.ffff.0000. What you said is also correct that "f" are care bits and
"0" are don't care. So correct me if I'm wrong. The mask of ffff.ffff.0000
implies 4000.2200 must match and the rest is don't care. This yields a
result of permitted mac address range 4000.2200.0000 through 4000.2200.ffff.
  Or 4000.2200.xxxx.

Regards,

Tom
