When I use _A , I get something like this:

08/15-17:27:48.482649  [**] [1:500020:0] Rule no.20 [**] [Priority: 0] {TCP} 244.85.5.101:443 -> 10.34.6.10:38835

Can you please tell me where is the packet number in this?

* You need to use -A console:test as Bhagya mentioned.  The packet number will be in the first column of the output.

You can use the option –A console:test (which outputs the packet number along with the alert to console) or use –A 
alert to log to a file.

Thanks!

I am matching a set of regular expressions against a large pcap file. I want snort to report the original packet number 
(like 10th packet of the pcap file reported match) as well when it gives alerts. What command I need to use to do this?
