KB - Built-In Destination Locations (Steering Exceptions)
Netskope Cloud Version - 129
Objective
Understand which destination locations are configured as steering exceptions by default.
Context
Each Steering Configuration comes with default values preconfigured by Netskope. Among these defaults are certain destination exceptions, such as Local IP Address Ranges and Bogon Networks. These destinations do not provide specific details on which networks are being bypassed. This document outlines that information in detail.
Destination Locations By Default
Local IP address range:
This Built-in "Destination Location" steering exception as of R122 includes the following Networks:
10.0.0.0/8
172.16.0.0/12
192.168.0.0/16
169.254.0.0/16
fe80::/10
You can find this information in nsexception.json in the Client log bundle.
Bogon Networks:
This Built-in "Destination Location" steering exception as of R122 includes all the Bogon Networks. The Bogon IP addresses are those not assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) or Regional Internet Registries (RIR). This unallocated address space is known as the bogus space. Bogons also include reserved private address ranges and link-local address ranges. Over time, IANA may assign these addresses to entities or RIRs.
