Thank you for the reply, especially for the manual links. ClearOS 6 implements snort from its marketplace. I will have to do a bit of work to modify the configuration. So I will be reading for a while. However, in my opinion, Clear Foundation doesn't do such a great job of documenting... Regards, Steve.T On 08/08/2016 08:47 PM, Al Lewis (allewi) wrote:
Hello, Snort is alerting off of the traffic is sees. Its up to the user to set snort up so that the traffic is sees makes sense (this is called IDS tuning). You may want to take a look at the manual.
