We have 3-4 switches and all switches has 5 pc as average. Additional 7-8
PC connect with WLAN.

I see traffic but ı cant see TCP traffic.

How are the "other machines" and Snort are connected (same switch)? Is the
interface on Snort connected to mirror port or something similar on the
switch? Try running tcpdump and view the packets to verify if you see
traffic from other machines. If not, then you need to configure mirroring
port on the switch, to which the NIC on Snort box will be connected
(promiscuous).

If you get the first problem sorted out, use the guide at

with the inline mode using NFQ.

Subject: [Snort-users] IPS Inline Mode

Hi,

I am new on Snort

I installed with guide and run IDS mode.

I have two problems.

Firstly, Snort handle only host machine packets. I write some rules
example:
alert tcp any any -> any any (content:"www.facebook.com";msg:"Facebook
Accessing";sid:1000001;)

This rule works only machine which installed Snort. Other machines
accesses are not handled.

Other problem is Inline Mode.

I run with this command

snort --daq nfq -Q -c /etc/snort/snort.conf  --daq-dir /usr/local/lib/daq
--daq-var device=eth0 -i eth0

Snort gives this error

ERROR: Can't initialize DAQ nfq (-7) - The nfq DAQ module does not support
interface or readback mode!

If I remove "-i eth0", Snort works but do not handle any packets

Thanks for replies

Good Works
