Should Allowlist Target edge nodes be excluded in Analytics?

With the update to Adobe IP's, should these be excluded from Analytics tracking?  Don't want to inflate bad traffic.

I am not sure what "update to Adobe IP's" you are referencing... but I would expect any IPs coming from Adobe itself that could trigger tracking would be taken into account when the data is processed... there shouldn't be any manual intervention on our part...

 

However, if you are distrustful that Adobe is properly excluding it; and if you aren't using IP obfuscation; you could run a Data Warehouse extraction (that includes IP addresses) for 1 or 2 days worth of data and see if any of those IPs are included in your data?
