How to use inputlookup file.csv to filter out results from a search

here is my current search that im running
index=test outbound "/22" cisco_dsthost!=10.0.0.1| RENAME cisco_dsthost AS Scr_host | RENAME cisco_srchost AS Dst_host| stats count by Scr_host, Dst_host

I want to add a inputlookup file.csv that has IPs inside of it that i want to exclude from that search. I want it to do something like -
index=test outbound "/22" cisco_dsthost!=10.0.0.1 NOT [|inputlookup file.csv] | RENAME cisco_dsthost AS Scr_host | RENAME cisco_srchost AS Dst_host| stats count by Scr_host, Dst_host

i have already uploaded the CSV file to splunk lookups directory and tested that splunk can pull it in. I just cant get the results to filter correctly.

1.1.1.1
1.1.1.2
