Re: Watching MAC addresses instead of IP's

There is only limited support for MAC addresses.  While MACs
can be output in text file logging via the (-e) option, one cannot
specifically include them in any rules.  However, if your 
interested in snort only watching traffic from/to a specific
MAC, use the normal rule set, but limit what Snort "sees" using
command line BPF parameters (e.g. ether)

Hi all,

I think this came up before, but giving a quick scan through the lists I
didn't see anything.

Is it possible to get snort to only watch traffic going to and coming
from specific MAC address(es)?

TIA, and best regards,
-Emil
