RE: Running Snort on Checkpoint NG AI/Secure Platfo rm

["Ballard, Sean (HHS/OS)" <Sean.Ballard () hhs gov>]

Well, there are a few reasons. Snort is much MUCH more flexible IMHO then SD
(SD is a great IPS though). Smart Defense also requires a software
subscription. What I am doing is measuring whether what I want to do is
first possible from a technical level, then of course a final decision will
be made as whether to use SD instead. At this stage I'm just trying to see
if it's been done by anyone before I setup my test environment.

Why you want to do that? Why don't you use SmartDefense from CheckPoint
which comes with the firewall software?

Subject: [Snort-users] Running Snort on Checkpoint NG AI/Secure Platform
Has anyone out there successfully setup snort to run on Checkpoint
Secureplatform? I am in the process of setting up a test box to see if I can
get this setup working. I am going to use vanilla Redhat snort RPM's for the
install. Has anyone got this up and working? I have googled newsgroups and
mail lists to no avail. Comments? Ideas?
