Creating Custom Botnet Lists

Address Object Name of the address object or address group object.
Botnet Icon indicating whether the entry was defined as a Botnet when created. A black circle indicates a Botnet, a white circle a non-Botnet.
Comments Any comments you added about the entry.
Configure Contains Edit and Delete icons for the entry.
Total Displays the number of entries in the Custom Botnet List.

An IP address can be wrongly marked as Botnet. This kind of misclassification can cause incorrect/unwanted filtering of an IP address. Having a custom Botnet list can solve this problem by overriding the Botnet tag for a particular IP address.
