Does anyone know why when creating ACLs for example, the 0 is the bit value that is the discriminating bit and the 1 is the wildcard bit? For example if the logic was reversed, I could simply type access-list 1 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 permit and that would allow me to permit an entire /24 subnet, however because of the bit logic with ACLs, I instead have to type access-list 1 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 permit. Does anyone why it is the case that bit values are the way they are?
