Inclusion or Exclusion of IP Range based on wild card

[tdtrivedi]

Our subnet locations have some IPs which are reserved for network equipment which are old and can not be scanned automatically (or using lspush). I want to exclude them since it has been decided to manage them out of lansweeper for now.

I know I can go thru each IP and include them in the exclusion list but is there a better way ? Can I use wild card here ? - e.g. x.x.x.235 is network device at locations which has to be excluded - can I use 192.168.*.235 ?

Current exclusion mechanism does not accept it.

Any pointer will help.

Thanks in advance.

I had a similar issue but was able to instead of scanning by IPs scan a Device Type. You have to manually enter them and scan them which kind of sucks the first time. But you can import the IPs from as CSV. But then you can do scheduled scan by Device Type. So create a custom Device Type called 'Old Crappy Routers' or whatever. Unfortantely the credential mapping isnt allow by Device Type so I had to credential map to the individual IPs but at least the schedule works.

2. No option to use wildcards.
