"Since potentially many events will be generated, a detection filter
would normally be used in conjunction with
an event filter to reduce the number of logged events."

Read README.filter at doc directory in tarball .

BTW your rule will trigger any icmp packet (ipv4/ipv6) . Read
README.ipv6 too  =)

Hi,

I have to detect smurf attaque with ICMPv6 paquet
I have used detection_filter and threshold like this:
lert icmp any any -> any any (msg:"---------- DOS IPV6: SMURF -----------";
detection_filter: track by_src, count 30, seconds 1; sid:1000009;)
alert icmp any any -> any any (msg:"---------- DOS IPV6: SMURF
-----------"; threshold: type limit, track by_src, count 30, seconds 1;
sid:10000010;)

but in alert file I obtain all the alerts
The script of smurf attack that I have used generates about17000 echo
request paquets per second and I want to have only one alert

Thanks
