subnet question 0.0.0.191

Has anyone used the 0.0.0.191 subnet before?

I am looking at the edge router that will connect to the XG firewall.

in the router config i see...

access-list 190 permit ip x.x.x.x 0.0.0.255 x.x.x.x  0.0.0.191

It seems like 0.0.0.191 prevents a network range from getting to the internet.

Does that mean its possible for that network range to have a subnet of 255.255.255.192 but the cisco router is hiding that subnet?

Seems significant the ACLs on the cisco router has the access-list 190 permit ip to most of my vlans.

 

0.0.0.191 - IP address is in a reserved range.

 

Google search came up with this...
