This policy if defined will prevent network protection against exploits of known vulnerabilities from inspecting the specified IP addresses. IP addresses should be added under the Options for this setting. Each entry must be listed as a name value pair where the name should be a string representation of an IP address range. As an example a range might be defined as: 157.1.45.123-60.1.1.1. The value is not used and it is recommended that this be set to 0.
