LOCAL_FILE is a file stored locally that contains a list of malicious domains, IP addresses and/or URLs. If omitted then it is assumed that a URL is provided. URL is a URL that contains a list of malicious domains, IP addresses or URLs. The default is https://zeustracker.abuse.ch/blocklist.php?download=domainblocklist. FIELD_NUM is the field number (indexing from 0) that contains the information of interest. If omitted then the file is treated as a simple list. INITIAL_SID is the SID that will be applied to the first rule. Every subsequent rule will increment the SID value. The default is 9000000.
