Hi all,

this might be simple but I can't find a reference to it.

I'd like to exclude one source IP (or maybe its whole C-class) from
being alerted on.

(This host often runs nessus scans, causing all sorts of alerts on the
apache servers).

It looks like the <white_list> tag in ossec.conf is only for active
response, not alerting.

So I suppose some condition should go into local_rules.xml. But what?

There should be an <if_srcip> tag to make an exemption based on
address(es), but there is no such tag.

How could a source IP be completely excluded from alerting?

Thanks,
Kal
