How do I exclude a subnet from a search using CIDR notation? For example, I have this search:

"%ASA-4-733100" OR "%ASA-4-733104" OR "%ASA-4-733105" NOT "[ Scanning]" NOT "[   172.16.10.2]" NOT "[           DNS   53]" NOT "[  NetBIOS-Name  137]"

I would like to exclude 192.168.0.0/16 from this search. What is a simple way to do this?

Should I use NOT "host_ip=192.168.0.0/16" or should I leave off the quotation marks?
