Provide your domain and IP details

You only need these settings if you integrate other products with Sophos Central. See About MDR and XDR integrations.

You can provide details of your internal domains and IPs on the My domains and IPs page.

The first time you try to integrate another product with Sophos Central, we prompt you to go to this page and enter your details.

We recommend that you do this for the following reasons:

  • We can identify which domains and IPs seen in threat detections are yours. This helps us group together and analyze alerts that might be related.

  • We can avoid looking up your internal domains and IPs on third-party threat data websites.

You only have to enter your details once.

You can add details when we prompt you, or add or edit details at any time as follows:

  1. Go to Threat Analysis Center > Integrations > Configured.
  2. On the Integrations tab, click My domains and IPs.

Add or delete internal IP ranges

Some IP ranges are already listed as internal. Here are the default ranges and the reasons for listing them.

IP range Reason for listing
10.0.0.0/8 Private use IPv4 block
172.16.0.0/12 Private use IPv4 block
192.168.0.0/16 Private use IPv4 block
127.0.0.1/32 Reserved for loopback
fc00::/7 Reserved for Unique Local Address IPv6
fe80::/10 Reserved for link-local addressing IPv6
169.254.0.0/16 Reserved for link-local addressing IPv4

To add an IP range that's specific to your organization, do as follows:

  1. Click Internal IP ranges.
  2. Enter an IP range. This must be a CIDR range, for example 192.168.0.15/24. To enter a single address, use the suffix /32. For example, 1.1.1.1/32.
  3. Click Add. The IP range is added to the list.
  4. Click Save in the upper right of the page.

To delete an IP range, click the cross beside the range in the IP ranges list and click Save.

Add or delete internal domains

    Make sure the domain name ends with a valid top-level domain. See List of Top-Level Domains.

  3. Click Add. The domain is added to the list.

  4. Click Save in the upper right of the page.

To delete a domain, click the cross beside the range in the domains list and click Save.
