Check a full network block from a Zendesk ticket

Assess the scope of a suspected network problem before deciding whether to block, investigate, or escalate.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

Triggers when a new ticket is created in a specified Zendesk view.

Action

Check Block

Tool to check the reputation of all ip addresses in a cidr range. use when you need aggregated abuse data for a network block.

Why this helps

Checking addresses one by one hides the broader risk pattern across a network range.

  • See aggregated abuse data for a range
  • Speed up network-level investigations
  • Support more consistent blocking decisions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Abuselpdb in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to detect CIDR ranges in new tickets, call Check Block, and summarize the aggregate findings.
  • 3Pick New Zendesk Ticket as the trigger.
  • 4Choose the report destination and test with one ticket containing a CIDR range.

Questions about this workflow

Does this check individual IPs too?

The workflow uses Check Block for the CIDR range. Ask Notis to run a separate IP check only when a specific address is also provided.

What if the ticket contains an invalid range?

Notis should report the invalid input and ask for a corrected CIDR range.
