Identify by specific subnet

(imported topic written by ErinC91)

Hi all,

An easy one for you bigfix gurus I’m sure.

I want to add a new console operator that can only see machines with IP addresses beginning with 10.168.x.x but I’m not sure how to do this.

I can see the code from the Location wizard should be helpful for this but I can’t work it out.

Can someone please help ?

Thanks!

Hi ErinC,

What you can do is to create an automatic computer group and assign the user to this group. Just follow the steps:

Click on Tools, Create New Automatic Group.

Below “Include computers with the following proterty”, select “Relevance Expression” (first option)

Select “is true” option

Click on “Edit Relevance” button and paste the following relevance:

exists addresses whose (it as string starts with 
"10.168") of ip interfaces of network

Click “Ok” twice and type your password.

Then you can go to the “Console Operator” tab, right-click the user, “Assign User Management Rights”. Click “Add”. In the tree, go to “By Group” and select the group you previously created.

Arnaud.
