    Add to your sensor one custom override for the same signature/s and define there your exempt IP number/s

    Thanks Abel, The problem is what we want to exclude this IP address from all policies. This is our dilemma, since we have individual IPS sensors for each policy.

    another approach: define a new policy for this IP, configure the IPS sensor you need for it, put that specific policy above all policies with similar src/dst and the firewall will take care of that exception executing this policy before the other ones.
