Hello!
It may be usefully to have a possibility to create an "objects group" with defined fields in filters.
For example:
Now I'm trying to create separate notifications for some group of devices. I'm filtering them by IP.
When a new devices is added I should update all rules where such filters are used.
With "objects group" it will be possible to modify only one objects group and all rules will use same data.
Now:
Filters --> Add filter --> IP address --> Simple
"192.168.1.1" "192.168.1.2" "192.168.1.3" "192.168.1.4" "192.168.1.5" "192.168.1.6"
With objects group:
Filters --> Add filter --> IP address --> Objects group --> Servers
Value Comment
192.168.1.1 DB-1
192.168.1.2 DB-2
192.168.1.3 WWW-1
192.168.1.4 WWW-2
192.168.1.5 Proj-1
192.168.1.6 Proj-2
It also may support ranges:
Value Comment
192.168.1.1-20 Web servers
Or regexp:
Value Comment
Alert from host db-.* DB servers
This can be used for IP address, Hostname, Mesage text and maybe somewhere else.
This request may solve and requests.
Thank you!
