IP Address Exceptions & iRule event triggers

Or Azarzar, that's exactly what I was describing when I said "I can just write the same address exception logic into my iRule." I want to avoid having to maintain both the ASM policy IP Address Exception list *and* a data group, iRule variable, or other list. (Update - as per @cjunior's answer below, I'm fine *using* a datagroup file as long as I don't need to *maintain* it)
