Excluding Assets in an Asset Scan

Occasionally you may want to exclude certain assets such as a printer or a switch when scanning a network. In Sheriff CSM 5.3.5 and later, you can exclude an asset by putting an exclamation mark ("!") in front of the IP address when configuring a scan.

The following screenshots show an example of excluding 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2 while scanning the 192.168.0.0/16 network.
