Uh, at least, not in ipfw2 rulesets it doesn't.  Where it does expand
like that is in csh(1), bash(1), zsh(1) and similar shells (but not
sh(1)):

    % echo 192.168.1.1/24{3,5,9}
    192.168.1.1/243 192.168.1.1/245 192.168.1.1/249

Perhaps the original poster was typing the rules in at the command
prompt?  In which case, simply use a few quote marks to stop the
shell interfering:

    # ipfw add 1000 permit all from '192.168.1.1/24{3,5,9}'

Or load the rules out of a file.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
