IP Prefix Lists

IP prefix lists are extension for classifiers and parsing rules, which include lists of IP addresses. If messages from more “Fortigate” devices are sent to Logmanager, a list of these devices IP addresses can be defined. Then you can directly query this IP prefix list in classifiers and parsing rules. For example, whether a message came to Logmanager from an IP address included in the IP prefix list.

This function is used in the IP Prefix list block. This block includes a list of all IP prefix lists, which can be used in a classifier or parsing rule.

The list of the prefix lists shows all records defined in the system. Table shows basic information: Name (name of the prefix list), Description (description of the prefix list) and Built in (whether the prefix list is integrated in the system).

Filter fields are located above the table. Data may be filtered by any single column. In case of using filters above more than one column, the AND term is applied.
