since snort rule may trigger many flase positive alert, while change to drop/sdrop inline mode, maybe it will cut the needed traffic. I think it need a small set rule especially choosed to suit for inline mode, does anyone do this work already? On 10/22/05, Eric Maheo <eric.maheo () appliedwatch com> wrote:
Hi, yes you can change to drop your rules but you have other options like sdrop/reject/replace.. see snort_manual.pdf in the /doc of your snort tarball. However be careful when you change your action to drop because it will drop every packets it interprets as illegitimate traffic.. So I will first set your IPS as IDS for a while and little by little switch your rules to drop/reject/sdrop/replace packets.
