Follow-up... For what it's worth...whatever you are using for your log analysis of the SNORT alerts, I would think it should be relatively easy to find what rule is being triggered by windows updates and either disable it, or add exceptions for certain hosts. -Tony -----Original Message----- From: Doug Olitsky [mailto:doug_olitsky () yahoo com] Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2014 9:31 AM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] Allowing windows updates to pass through snort OK, I'm a beginner at this and after months of trying to read and teach myself I cry uncle... I have Snort running on a pfSense gateway I built a year ago. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to prevent windows updates from being blocked. My lame solution is to disable Snort for updates and then restart when done. I tried setting IPS to Connectivity and even disabling it along w/ the community rules to no avail.
