yes waldo  I said before . Snort  alert classify description is good but I need
more information .

ok... let's look...

for example :
one classify is "icmp-event" and this description is : Generic ICMP event " .

ok...

but I want to know more information  about this for example what kind of ICMP
event is in this classify?

to me /ALL/ ICMP events would have this classification...

Or why this is one classify ? Or for example " non
standard procol" or so no .

i'd have to see what might be using this classification to tell more...


Thanks

        yes joel but I said before that I need more information than that
        description


    what, in those descriptions, is not clear? they are it... really... they are
    what all implementers and rule creators have to go by... there is and has
    never been anything else ;)

    what am i missing? possibly a language barrier?
