Dynamic groups creation

HI all. Is there a way to create a dynamic group using a subnet range? I.E. 192.169.1.0/20

@MarkyB, every row added is considered an "AND" statement. Conceptually you'll want "OR" statements. To facilitate this you can just make additional dynamic queries with each condition. This in essence treats every dynamic query as an "OR"

You have limited options, best I can recommend is 15 dynamic queries each with 1 rule, which is terrible but will work. Set them up like below, and the 3rd octet is 1-15 in each rule. And double check my math calculating the subnet.

HI jm
I've been using this method for the majority of our sites but when i set up as above with 192.169.1 192.169.2 192.168.3 and so on it returns no nodes. If i remove all but 1 it then works and returns nodes. Head scratching No checking required lol the last octet is 112 to 119 so my /20 was out of the park lol
