I'm trying to write a rule to match on a regex, but only if it comes from 
certain hosts.

It's easy enough to do this:

  <rule id="102001" level="2">
    <if_sid>1002</if_sid>
    <srcip>10.10.10.10</srcip>
    <srcip>10.10.10.20</srcip>
    <regex>[\d+]: this is a false positive </regex>
    <options>no_email_alert</options>
    <description>Don't send email alerts on these bogus false 
positives</description>
  </rule>

if there's only one or two hosts.  But if there are lots of host IPs that 
happen to match
a pattern, it gets cumbersome.  What' I'd like to do is something like:

<srcip_regex>10.10.1\d.\d0</srcip_regex>

Is there another way to do this?
