I've forgotten, but..
I'm working with Exchange 2000, in which, I am using the SMTP Virtual Server's "Deny Access" to block IP addresses which send spam, and to block countries who would have no other interest in what our company does. (example, why would people in China be interested in an apartment complex in Oklahoma, plus they could get to our web site, and call...)
Anyhow, my question is, if I want to block 202.0.0.0~203.0.0.0, with a subnet mask of 254.0.0.0 - do I need to use 202.0.0.0/7 or 203.0.0.0/7 ?
Thanks!

My God, no one knows this?

Since 202.0.0.0/7 translates to a broadcast address of 203.255.255.255, I would assume 202.0.0.0/7 if exchange is asking for CIDR notation...
I don't do exchange so I can't help past this.

Could this IP calculator help you?

You mean you use a calculator?
I don't think I will ever forget the 50 exercises in binary subnetting I did last semester...

Exactly, I remembered mine for about an hour

A post-exam trip to the bar soon cured mine

Well, it's wanting:
IP / Subnet Mask
Example:
192.168.1.0 / 255.255.255.0
I'm wondering if I should use:
202.0.0.0 / 254.0.0.0 or if it should be 203.0.0.0 / 254.0.0.0
EDIT: Also, thanks for the replies!

202.0.0.0 I would think, after all it wants to know which networks to block. if you give it 203, the subnetting will be wrong.
