4.3.3.3 Excluded IP addresses
The entries in the list will be excluded from protocol content filtering. HTTP/POP3/IMAP communication from/to
the selected addresses will not be checked for threats. We recommend that you only use this option for addresses
that are known to be trustworthy.
Add IPv4/IPv6 address – Click to add an IP address/address range/subnet of a remote point to which a rule is
applied.
Remove – Remove selected entries from the list.
4.3.3.3.1 Add IPv4 address
This allows you to add an IP address/address range/subnet of a remote point to which a rule is applied. Internet
Protocol version 4 is the older but still the most widely used.
Single address – Adds the IP address of an individual computer for which the rule is to be applied (for example
192.168.0.10).
Address range – Enter the starting and ending address IP address to specify the IP range (of several computers) for
which the rule is to be applied (for example 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.99).
Subnet – Subnet (a group of computers) defined by an IP address and mask.
For example, 255.255.255.0 is the network mask for the 192.168.1.0/24 prefix, that means 192.168.1.1 to
192.168.1.254 address range.
4.3.3.3.2 Add IPv6 address
This allows you to add an IPv6 address/subnet of a remote point for which the rule is applied. It is the newest
version of the Internet protocol and will replace the older version 4.
Single address – Adds the IP address of an individual computer for which the rule is to be applied (for example
2001:718:1c01:16:214:22ff:fec9:ca5).
Subnet – Subnet (a group of computers) is defined by an IP address and mask (for example: 2002:c0a8:6301:1::1/64).
