Pattern matching in Zones

Pattern matching allows you to use wild card characters, character lists and character ranges in any combination to match a certain value (for example, client names or IP addresses). The specified pattern is used to find the desired data. If necessary, you can test a certain pattern before you use it in a field.

You can use the following pattern matching characters when configuring Zones:
