Per:

https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/it-operations-management/dx-netops/22-2/Performance-Monitoring-with-DX-Performance-Management/apis/data-aggregator-rest-webservices/poll-sensitive-and-critical-devices-without-a-performance-impact.html

You can specify an IP or IP range.

Formatted example from the documentation:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<SnmpThrottlePolicy version="1.0.0">
  <IPRangeList>
    <IPRange>
      <IPRangeText>10.231.41.7</IPRangeText>
      <MaxOutstandingRequests>10</MaxOutstandingRequests>
      <TimeoutFailSafeThrottle>10</TimeoutFailSafeThrottle>
      <MaxRequestSize>50</MaxRequestSize>
    </IPRange>
    <IPRange>
      <IPRangeText>10.231.41.1-10.231.41.255</IPRangeText>
      <MaxOutstandingRequests>15</MaxOutstandingRequests>
      <TimeoutFailSafeThrottle>15</TimeoutFailSafeThrottle>
      <MaxRequestSize>30</MaxRequestSize>
    </IPRange>
  </IPRangeList>
  <MaxRequestSizeDefault>0</MaxRequestSizeDefault>
  <MaxOutstandingRequestsDefault>15</MaxOutstandingRequestsDefault>
  <QueueLength>600</QueueLength>
  <TimeoutFailSafeThrottleDefault>15</TimeoutFailSafeThrottleDefault>
</SnmpThrottlePolicy>

Also, see the note: "You can adjust the thresholds for a single device or a range of devices. The IP Range definition and the IP Range order determine which threshold applies. The IP Ranges are listed in priority order. That is, the first IP Range that applies to a device determines the threshold value to apply."
