Re: Snort on proxy (outbound alerts)

Without using a transparent proxy, your only options are to monitor
"Proxy <-> Client" or "Proxy <-> Outside" or both. You can't merger
the two together because they are different sessions. If you monitor
both and have a SIEM you can sometimes "merge" the SIEM alerts
together if the SIEM is collecting alerts from both sensors and the
proxy.

I cannot run a transparent proxy.

You got it, I want to be alerted about my LAN.
Already thought about BPF filters, but what you are forgetting, is that some
rules are made to match on some DESTINATIONS. In my case, the destination
for my clients' HTTP traffic will always be my proxy.
Something interesting, would be if snort could look at the CONNECT method in
my HTTP requests (for example).

Hi,

Thank you for answering.

Only one interface on my proxy machine.

SQUID/Snort listenin on the same one.

some might consider that to be part of the problem... it sounds like what
you
want is for snort to be listening only to your internal machines... you
might be
able to use a bpf to block out alerts concerning your proxy...
