You may get better performance from your query, and be able to make better
use of indexes if you use integer comparisons for your IP address
expressions instead of converting to strings with pattern matching.  You
might consider something like the following:


SELECT DISTINCT(e.src_ip) 
FROM event e
left outer join mappings m on mappings.src_ip = e.src_ip
WHERE e.timestamp BETWEEN '2010-10-11 00:00:00' AND '2010-10-12 00:00:00' 
AND e.src_ip NOT BETWEEN 167772160 AND 184549375
AND e.src_ip NOT BETWEEN 2886729728 AND 2886795263
AND e.src_ip NOT BETWEEN 3232235520 AND 3232301055
AND m.src_ip IS NULL;

This and the suggestion by Nathan both work.

Thanks for the help!
