snort-2.9.4 with libpcap 1.3.0. And you're right, running 'tcpdump -i <iface> -vvnn src host 10.10.1.1' doesn't return anything but the alerts keep getting logged. Why is that?! Cheers, MA On Tue, Jan 29, 2013 at 6:53 PM, Rm Kml <rmkml () yahoo fr> wrote:
Thx, Im curious what is your snort version please ? Maybe you have vlan ? For example can you write network trafic with tcpdump like and replay file on tcpdump + snort with bpf ? Do you have same pb if you add bpf instructions on snort cmd line ?

I just have one line just to test: not src host (10.10.1.1) But it's still triggering alerts after restarting snort. 01/29-16:56:07.106637 [**] [1:2010937:2] ET POLICY Suspicious inbound to mySQL port 3306 [**] [Classification: Potentially Bad Traffic] [Priority: 2] {TCP} 10.10.1.1:39944 -> 10.42.1.0:3306 Any ideas? I am very familiar with bpf syntax and use it on the command line with tcpdump all the time so this is very confusing!

I've got them listed in the following syntax for example: not (src host 10.10.1.1) && not (src host 10.10.1.2) && not (src host 10.10.1.3) And my snort process is pointing to it: /usr/sbin/snort -D -i eth6 -u snort -g snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort/eth6 -F /etc/snort/bpf_file And it shows up in the syslog when snorts starts: Jan 29 16:15:53 nids1 snort[940]: Reading filter from bpf file: /etc/snort/bpf_file Jan 29 16:15:53 nids1 snort[940]: Snort BPF option: not (src host 10.10.1.1) && not (src host 10.10.1.2) && not (src host 10.10.1.3) But the alerts keep streaming in (not just this alert): 01/29-16:36:28.235294 [**] [1:2003068:6] ET SCAN Potential SSH Scan OUTBOUND [**] [Classification: Attempted Information Leak] [Priority: 2] {TCP} 10.10.1.1:49870 -> 10.10.1.43:22 This is snort 2.9.4.0 on CentOS 5.x. What am I doing wrong? Thank you! MA
