RE: request for new Classification?

Yes, I know. But to further advance snort, it would seem to be
appropriate to add other classifications for the entire community.

Do you do know you can edit the classification.config file yourself?

What's the proper way to request new Classification strings for the
classification.config file?

Would like to see something that describes 'very serious activity' that
needs to be escalated and resolved ASAP. For example, while sniffing
traffic on a DMZ where only https should reside, I'd like to alert on
ftp, telnet, or other rather generic protocols that should _never_ occur
(could be inbound or outbound).

On the backend of the alerting process, I'd like to initiate pager 
alerts based on keywords, etc. Fully understand the keywords can be part
of the Msg, but none of the Classifications suggest anything as serious
as what might be happening.

Thoughts?

Rich
