Alerting

How to exclude device from all Alerts?

We utilise Enterprise Security and have a large number of detections that we use.  We have recently put in some testing hardware that could trigger any one of these alerts and I am trying to find out if there is someway that we could suppress or exclude a device if that host potentially triggered these rules.  Is there a way to effectively do a global "ignore any alerts from xxxx" without having to edit every single rule?

Hi @willadams,

no, for my knowledge, there isn't any exclusion list in ES, the only way is to customize your correlation searches.

It could be a good idea to submit this request to Splunk Ideas for the new features of ES.

Ciao.
