Re: reading folder of PCAP files

Or you could go the old fashioned way, and for loop your Snort instance…

for i in `ls *.pcap`; do snort -r $i -c snort.conf > $i.txt; done

Hello,

The option you may want is this one:

--pcap-dir <dir>                a directory to recurse to look for pcaps - read mode is implied.


run ./bin/snort —help for the options list.

Subject: [Snort-users] reading folder of PCAP files

sudo snort -r xxxx.pcap -c snort.conf   is use in reading/analyzing a single dataset (xxxx.pcap or darpa.tcpdump), but 
i will like to know if there is a way to read /analyze list of dataset in a folder. For example, i have around 12 pcap 
files in a folder called wwww, so i want to read them all at once using snort rules.
