IP address masking parameter
dcsipa allows you to mask IP addresses by specifying the optional value of 1.
Note: Masking the IP address impacts the reporting granularity of geolocation reports.
To mask IP addresses collected by Oracle Infinity, do one of the following:
- Include the following meta tag in the header of all pages containing the Oracle Infinity Tag:
<meta name="DCS.dcsipa" content="1" /> - Work with your Oracle Infinity solutions consultant to implement the IP Mask Tag Plugin.
- Work with your Oracle Infinity solutions consultant to preload the Oracle Infinity Tag with a mutation to add
dcsipa=1to every hit.
If you have a noscript call, you should modify the <noscript> portion of your Oracle Infinity Tag so that it includes &dcsipa=1.
| Valid value | 1: IP addresses logged by Oracle Infinity data collection servers are masked by replacing the last octet of IPV4 and the last 5 segments of IPV6 addresses with 0. If a dcsipa value of 1 is not specified, IP addresses will not be masked. |
| Syntax | dcsipa=1
|
| Example | dcsipa=1
|
Note The dcsipa parameter is included in the default whitelist. If you are also using the block list tag plugin with a custom whitelist, include dcsipa in the custom whitelist.
