A mask of 255.255.255.255 (or equivalently /32) is just
a single IP address, so  A.B.C.D/32 is the same as just
A.B.C.D.  (Unless I misunderstood something you said).

> In at least 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 GBL and GBP, Gnatbox forgets mask settings

> <some ip address>/255.255.255.255 for the IPs.
> 
> Click OK and once the menu of RA filters comes back up, the masks have

> the IPs are
> there with the /32 mask.  Click OK again (no changes have 
> been made) and
> when the menu of RA filters comes back up, the masks have disappeared.
> Clicking the checkmark to edit again confirms this.  The IPs are still
