Re: Using a var in the conf and local rules

The IP blacklist can be made to not drop traffic by default (in fact, that is the default configuration by just turning 
the rules on).

Actually about it, I don't want to blacklist the sites, just get an alert when they are attempted. 

So back to a conf var.

Hey James, 

Thanks for the reply! 
Not sure either, never done that. 
I am open for trying anything so I will check into it. 
If anyone has any advice please reply?

Subject: [Snort-users] Using a var in the conf and local rules



Hey all, 

I am adding scanners for 600+ suspect IPs in a text file. 
Ok adding in include snort.var 
Adding var IP_RULES
Then tcp any any - >
$IP_RULES any (msg:"suspect IP detected; sid 4525;) 
I would like if the alert would tell me which IP it found. 
Usually I would use a content but this is different. 
Any know how to set this up? 

Thanks,
