Hi, I need to know where exactly snort is placed in a switched network. Is it setup with port mirroring or in such a way that its a default gateway and all traffic passes through? Someone told me snort can drop packets based on the rules but i thought it just logged packets when they satisy rules as opposed to dropping them. I have set it up with the firewall port mirroring to snort, is this correct Rgds. http://www.sold.com.au - SOLD.com.au Auctions - 1,000s of Bargains! _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
