When I run this, I get an error "Can't localize lexical variable". I understand that it's because the variable is declared using "my"; what I don't understand is why, or what I should declare the variable as, since if I leave out "my" I get an error using "use strict".


Declare it using 'our':

our @excludedIPAddresses;
