From snort.conf:
# or use global variable $<interfacename>_ADDRESS # which will be always initialized to IP address and # netmask of the network interface which you run # snort at. # # var HOME_NET $eth0_ADDRESS This should expand to 192.168.1.0/24 if eth0 has ip 192.168.1.1 e.g. Using var EXTERNAL_NET !$HOME_NET in the example above means "EXTERNAL_NET is everything not in the range of 192.168.1.0/24", so if your alerts generated when using EXTERNAL_NET any are in that range you won't get any alert when EXTERNAL_NET is defined as !$HOME_NET. HTH, Sandro
I've read somewhere in the archives that this is allowed: var HOME_NET $eth0_ADDRESS var EXTERNAL_NET !$HOME_NET Is it? If so, it is not working for me. I have define EXTERNAL_NET as ANY in order to get logs/alerts. Any idea why? Or is it not suppose to work this way?
