Re: Alert on Max connections per IP

Detection filters prevent a rule from firing until the threshold is met.

You may be looking for a rate filter.  Check README.filters.

I already use that in my rule with no luck.

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> 192.168.1.50 4000 ( msg:"Deteccion de conexiones"; flow:established,to_server; content:"|0d 00 00 00 50 cc 5d ed

b6 19 a5 91 00|"; nocase; rawbytes; *detection_filter: track by_src, count 2, seconds 60*; sid:1000050; rev:1;)

If I quit detection_filter the rule works detecting the content, but with the detection_filter doesn’t.

I don’t know what to do.

Thanks again !

Section on thresholding:

See the section on the detection filters.

http://manual-snort-org.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/node34.html#detection_filter

1)  track by the source - source IP match

2) count - number of rule matching in seconds that will cause event_filter limit to be exceeded.

3 ) within 60 seconds - within the time specified

The third packet that matches the source IP will trigger an alert if within the 60 second time period.
