Potential false positives

edit

Virtual Network Device modification or deletion may be performed by a system administrator. Verify whether the user identity, user agent, and/or hostname should be making changes in your environment. Virtual Network Device modification or deletion by unfamiliar users should be investigated. If known behavior is causing false positives, it can be exempted from the rule.
