To ignore some configuration item (CI) classes, for example Load Balancer
\[cmdb_ci_lb\], when running CI Lookup Rules, set the ignoreCIClass
\[sn_sec_cmn.ignoreCIClass\] system property.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin  
Note:  
The ignoreCIClass system property is available starting with Vulnerability Response v9.0, however, the property functionality is not available on upgrade from any previous version.

If you have upgraded from any Security Operations application, prior to version 9.0, see [KB0788209](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0788209) for instructions on how to enable this functionality.

## Procedure

1. Enter `sys_properties.list` in the left navigation bar.
2. Select Enter.
3. In the Search menu, under Name enter `sn_sec_cmn.ignoreCIClass`.
4. In the Value text box, enter the CI classes to exclude in a comma-separated list.  
5. Select Update.  
   This list is used by CI Lookup Rules during the next import. Vulnerable items created during import are not associated to a CI of any type listed in the Value field of the `sn_sec_cmn.ignoreCIClass` system property.
