Defining a Scope

Scopes are defined by creating sets of target lists referred to as Scope Presets.

  • Targets added to the In Scope list will be included in traffic tables and operations.

  • Targets added to the Out of Scope list will be excluded in traffic tables and operations.

The targets in either list will be compared against the value of the Host header or destination IP address of proxied requests.

Creating a New Scope Preset Manually

To create a new Scope Preset, click on the + New Preset button and press ENTER.

TIP

By default, new Scope Presets are named "New preset". We recommend changing the name to a name that is more descriptive, such as the base domain of your target. Once the Scope Preset is created, you can edit its name by typing within the Name * input field. To save the new name, press ENTER.

Defining Targets

To define targets, click in either the In Scope input field or Out of Scope input field and type in either IP addresses or domains, each on a new line.

INFO

Domains can only contain the following characters:

  • Lowercase letters: a-z
  • Numbers: 0-9
  • Symbols: ., -, _, *, ?

TIP

The * and ? characters in a target domain act as wildcard characters that can be used to account for subdomains and top-level domains:

  • *: Matches multiple characters.
  • ?: Matches a single character.

Example: To account for all subdomains of example.com, add *.example.com to a list.

Once you have defined the target lists, click on the 🖫 Save button to update and save the Scope Preset.
