I am trying to exclude some data from the pie chart and using exclude pattern from advanced option but it is not working. Syntax i am using is :  
-remote\_host : 192\*

But it is not working.

The exclude pattern uses regular-expression like syntax and only applies to the field of the aggregation [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation.html#\_filtering\_values\_2](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation.html#_filtering_values_2)
