.

body common control
{
bundlesequence => { "example" };
}

{
vars:
"nameservers" slist => {
"128.39.89.10",
"128.39.74.16",
"192.168.1.103",
"10.132.51.66"
};
classes:
"am_name_server" expression => reglist(@(nameservers), "127\.0\.0\.1");
reports:
am_name_server::
"127.0.0.1 is currently set as a nameserver";
!am_name_server::
"127.0.0.1 is NOT currently set as a nameserver";
}
Output:
R: 127.0.0.1 is NOT currently set as a nameserver
In the example above, the IP address in $(sys.ipv4[eth0])
must be escape
d,
so that the (.) characters in the IP address are not interpreted as the
regular expression "match any" characters.
