I get what you're saying, but I think it would be WAY easier (and more efficient) to do all of this in a single data group. Like this:

10.10.0.0/255.255.0.0 := rate_class_1
12.12.0.0/255.255.0.0 := rate_class_2
11.11.0.0/255.255.0.0 := rate_class_3

Where the address and mask are specified and the value is the corresponding rate class. With 3 separate data groups, you'd have to iterate through all of them to find a match.
