Try changing "LOCAL" to the actual net block.

For example, try using:

ALL: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your network IP and yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is your
netmask.

If your system's IP address was 211.10.5.16, and you had a full class
C block, and you wanted to allow every system on that net block, you'd
use:

ALL: 211.10.5.0/255.255.255.0
