Hello, I am just trying to figure out what an OK number of dropped packets are. I am just sniffing right now and this the command I used: snort -v Stats: Snort received 3483036 Analyzed: 3461357 (99.378%) Dropped: 21679 (0.622%) So is this a pretty normal amount for it to drop? Do people go for awhile with out dropping any packets? I am running this on a 3.0 Ghz machine. I doubt the network is saturating the monitoring port. Also I ran this test for about 1 hour.
