Please review the mysql documentation next time before posting, 
particularly since this is a Red Hat list, not a MySQL list.  
Nevertheless, straight out of the online manual...

"You can specify wildcards in the hostname. For example, 
user_name@'%.loc.gov' applies to user_name for any host in the loc.gov 
domain, and user_name@'144.155.166.%' applies to user_name for any host 
in the 144.155.166 class C subnet."
