I was looking for something that DROP malicius packets instantly, snortsam just add a rules *after* the packet 
transmission. i'm playing with flexresp on an openbsd bridge, that should do what I (we?) want but it simply doesn't, 
rule is matched but not dropped. i will work on that in the next days, I hope in my silly mistake..any advices are 
welcome.
