ManHunt has been tested at up to 2 gigabits per second.
lol.... well, that's great, but how did it *perform* at 2 Gbps? How many packets did it drop, how many alerts did it miss, munge or misinterpret? Would you mind sharing the real results?
Actually, I used to do SQA for Symantec's NIDS development team so I'm not sure I can disclose what their benchmark target release numbers are but I can tell you they are very strict about their success rate percentages before release (for dropped packets and alerts) In your defense, I haven't actually tested it at those speeds myself in the "real world" yet and as with any IDS I find there is a certain amount of "tweaking" to eliminate the false positives. Especially on the anomaly detection. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. Charter: http://lists.netsys.com/full-disclosure-charter.html
