Re: Compiling snort for CheckPoint Firewall-1 support

Hi Frank,

Yes, correct but I need to modify snort rules by hand if i would to block some connections with snortsam (and if I launch process to update snort rules, they are overwritted and I lose my changes). I need to block connections immediately using snort rules and custom rules.

  i would like to test snort 2.4.4 release with CheckPoint fw-1
(NGR55 and NGX) and in-line (snort-inline.sf.net) support. I have used snortsam last months, but I need a real IPS now thath sends commands to my firewalls and blocks traffic. How can I compile snort for fw1
support???

Uhm... that *IS* what Snortsam does. It sends commands to your firewall
to block traffic.

You can't build Snort with FW-1 specific support like you can with
RealSecure or other commercial products that have OPSEC(tm) support.

Snortsam provides that OPSEC support, but not straight from Snort. It is
interfaced by Snortsam (Snort->Snortsam->FW-1).


Regards,
Frank
