Hello,

Can you provide us with the pcap or a sample of it?

Subject: [Snort-users] why UDP disc acquire?

Hi all. I use snort 2.9.8.2 A have some pcap file for old attack (see attach) .  It contain only udp packets.
I wrote test rule:

alert udp any 500 -> any 500 (msg:"DOS Nbisakmp"; classtype: attempted-dos; sid:1000001; rev:1;)

and run snort:

snort  -c ./etc/snort.conf -A console -K none  -k none  -r ./pcaps/DOS_Nbisakmp.pcap

and get no alerts. In output stats i have:

...........
Packet I/O Totals:
   Received:          100
   Analyzed:          100 (100.000%)
    Dropped:            0 (  0.000%)
   Filtered:            0 (  0.000%)
Outstanding:            0 (  0.000%)
   Injected:            0
.....................

        Eth:          100 (100.000%)
       VLAN:            0 (  0.000%)
        IP4:          100 (100.000%)
       Frag:            0 (  0.000%)
       ICMP:            0 (  0.000%)
        UDP:          100 (100.000%)
...................
 UDP Disc:          100 (100.000%)
  ICMP Disc:            0 (  0.000%)
All Discard:          100 (100.000%)

(full output and snort.conf see in attach)


If i change rule  (udp to ip)  :

alert ip any 500 -> any 500 (msg:"DOS Nbisakmp"; classtype: attempted-dos; sid:1000001; rev:1;)
all packets generate alerts.


So, why UDP packets in sample pcap discarded if i use udp protocol in alert?
