In the event that a select group of devices meeting the include criteria (for example $type in ["Router'] ) need to be excluded from the config policy, there is an easy way to achieve this.

1. Create a Device Group (Results --> Network --> Device Group) that includes the devices that need to be excluded from the policy

2. Use the not memberOf ["device group name"] statement within the policy

Example:

 Device-Filter:  $Vendor == "Cisco" and $Type in ["Router", "Switch-Router"] and not memberOf ["device group name"]

If a different policy is to be run on the excluded devices, simply use the memberOf statement without the 'not'. 

Example:

 Device-Filter:  memberOf ["device group name"]
