Your query can include IPv4, IPv6, and MAC addresses.
Search stores IPv4, IPv6, and MAC adresses addresses in a format that provides search flexibility and enables you to perform the following actions:
For example, Agent Address > 192.10.11.12.
For example, you can enter the following types of queries:
Agent Address in between 192.2.13.1 and 192.2.13.11
Source Address greater equal than 192.10.11.12
Destination Address less than 192.112.98.33
You can enter the following types of queries:
To specify IP addresses in the subnet starting with a particular value:
Agent Address in subnet 192.*
To specify an IPv4 address in a subnet that uses CIDR notation. The first eight bits are the network part of the address, leaving the last 24 bits for specific host addresses.
Agent Address in subnet 192.0.0.0/8
To specify an agent address in a subnet that uses CIDR notation. The first 24 bits are the network part of the address, leaving the last 40 bits for specific host addresses.
Agent Address in subnet 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:ff00:0042:8329/24
Search stores MAC addresses in their original format.
You can enter IP addreses in the following formats:
aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa
aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa
The following table lists the query format and examples for the type of IP address.
