Remarks

You can also match multiple sites, site aliases, DNS records using this filter. The combination of two filtering rules in one filter node can look as follows:

<filter>
   <id>1</id>
   <id>2</id>
   <id>3</id>
</filter>

Note: You can use either id, site-id, or site-alias-id when using this filter. The packet that contains a combination of these parameters in a single filter node will be considered invalid by Plesk server.
