Re: Snort unable to drop packets in inline mode

Ok....imma top post just because.  Here's what I have on my end that's
working:

           Using ZLIB version: 1.2.8

snort --daq-list
Available DAQ modules:
pcap(v3): readback live multi unpriv
nfq(v7): live inline multi
ipfw(v3): live inline multi unpriv
dump(v2): readback live inline multi unpriv
afpacket(v5): live inline multi unpriv

config line (pfring lines won't be relevant for you I am guessing):
./configure --enable-non-ether-decoders --enable-sourcefire
--enable-shared-rep --enable-control-socket
--with-libpcap-includes=/opt/pfring/include
--with-libpcap-libraries=/opt/pfring/lib
--with-libpfring-includes=/opt/pfring/include
--with-libpfring-libraries=/opt/pfring/lib --enable-open-appid

I can't imagine that this would make a difference, but per the README in
the daq src:

AFPACKET Module
===============

afpacket functions similar to the pcap DAQ but with better performance:

    ./snort --daq afpacket -i <device>
            [--daq-var buffer_size_mb=<#MB>]
            [--daq-var debug]

If you want to run afpacket in inline mode, you must craft the device
string as
one or more interface pairs, where each member of a pair is separated by
a
single colon and each pair is separated by a double colon like this:

I do see in your start that you specify interfaces first, then afpacket
second, so reverse that to:

sudo snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -Q --daq afpacket -i eth1:eth0 -k
none -A fast

I would also try --daq-var debug if you still get things allowed after
trying the above.  This test box is Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS, so we are pretty
much running the same thing.  Lastly, although seeing the wget session
helps, try and get an actual packet capture...it will help.

Hi James,



Yes, I do have a capture on my Windows 7 PC which is sitting behind
Snort(linux).


-> Snort command used: 
snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -Q -i eth1:eth0 --daq afpacket -k none
-A fast

        Rishabh,
        
        How are you confirming that this isn't getting
        dropped/blocked/blacklisted?  Do you have a capture, or can
        you capture on the IPS to see what the traffic is looking
        like?
        
        James
