Hi,

Without giving it a try, I would say the following should work:

try{
    var ip = user.header('x-cluster-client-ip');
    if(ip.match(/^5\.19\.(0|1|2|3|4|5|5|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|14|15)+\.\d/g)) {
       mboxParam = 'true';
   }
 return mboxParam;
}
catch(e){
  // Error handling...    
}

Hi,

If you have access to the IP address in your datalayer, you could simply just exclude the Target script based on the IP address.

Alternatively, you will have to setup a profile script setting a property on a target user profile, if the traffic match the specific IP address. Then you just use that as a criteria in your audience.

You can read more about profile scripts here: https://marketing.adobe.com/resources/help/en_US/tnt/help/r_variables_profiles_parameters_methods.ht... and look for user.header('x-cluster-client-ip') as that will give you access to the IP address.

If you don't know about profile scripts, let me know and I can help you write it. (just let me know the IP)

Thank you very much Løjmann, could we have an profile script example for 5.19.0.0? And for a range from 5.19.0.0 to 5.19.15.254?
