Re: IRC BOT and IP protocol 255

According to Brian Ertel:
Can Snort log the IP protocol 255?  Has anyone
had any success with logging IRC Network BOT
traffic? 

Yes.  If you are using a recent 1.9 snapshot, sid:1627 should look
this.  All IP protocols above 134 are either reserved or unassigned,
so you should never see these being used.

alert ip $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HOME_NET any (msg:"BAD TRAFFIC Unassigned/Reserved IP protocol"; ip_proto:>134; 
classtype:non-standard-protocol; sid:1627; rev:1;
)
