snort rule question..

["Taylor Lewick" <Taylor.Lewick () us fortis com>]

Apparently, Veritas netbackup bpcd (backup plus control daemon) traffic sets off a rule in snort for DOS arkiea backup 
Classification Attempted Denial of Service...

Any idea why the logic would classify this as a denial of service...
Does this process flood the port or something?

Thanks,
Taylor
