A new entry is being added to the blacklist/whitelist that renders an existing list entry superfluous. This condition can happen when the entry that is being added has a wider match criteria than the existing entry as the set of identities that can match the existing entry is a subset of the set of identities that can match the newly added entry. For example adding an entry with IP address 10.10.10.0/24 to the blacklist followed by adding a second entry with IP address 10.10.0.0/16 renders the 10.10.10.0/24 entry redundant.
White this is not an error condition, it can result in inefficient use of system resources like ACLs, memory and CPU cycles. It is recommended that the user delete the entry that has the narrower match criteria to free up unnecessary resources that are consumed by the redundant entry.
Notice
Adding %entry2% to list results in %entry1% becoming redundant
