192.168.1.0/16 ge 17 will allow any with a mask length of 17 or more bits.

If you actually enter this into a router, the router will drop the third
octet, because you are really only matching the first two octets with a /16.

R1(config)#ip prefix-list 11 permit 192.168.1.0/16 ge 17

R1#show run | include prefix
ip prefix-list 11 seq 5 permit 192.168.0.0/16 ge 17
R1#

Are you sure?

My reading is:

192.168.1.0/16
allows 192.168.x.x

192.168.1.0/16 ge 17
allows 192.168.x.x but must have a length greater than 18 bits in the mask
