The rule search page offers two parameters "Host match list" and "Item match list". These parameters could be used to search for rules which have their explicit host or item condition set up in such a way that it matches the given host or service (either by being unset or set). However, these parameters do not check other conditions and might return rules which for other reasons (such as a second host tag condition for example) still might not match the specified host or service.

This werk renames these fields to "Explicit host matching" and "Explicit item matching" and expands on their inline help to clarify this behavior.

To see which rules are effective on a given host, please refer to the "effective parameters" item under the burger menu in a host monitoring view.
