The Event Console now stores the original source IP address when receiving an event directly via an SNMP trap or the builting syslog server. This ipaddress is put into a new dedicated field in the event and is shown in the details of the event. In the event rules you can now match on this address using a X.X.X.X/Y networking syntax.
Note: If you receive syslog messages forwarded from another syslog server, then you will see the IP address of that server there - not from the original message.
