Yes actually.  So I suppose that the HP Openview or
MRTG box would tell me about it.  If I happen to look
there that is.  Sigh.

Actually an interesting idea (well...to me) is having
a standardized format for IDS alerts.  You know like
an IEEE thing where the fields would have to contain
specified information in a specified format? 
Obviously the IEEE would probably not do this, but I'm
a little rusty on my acronyms.

Vendors could be compliant and then add there
non-compliant stuff with an asterisk, kinda like
databases right now.  Anyhoo it's an idea (one that
would likely take 3-5 years to materialize).  Does
anyone know if anybody is doing this yet?  I don't see
how the field can *not* be inhibited if no one does
this in the future - too chaotic.

Read it, loved it.  We have 3 IDS vendors (well, 2
vendors and snort), Cisco router acls, Solaris
firewalls and another vendor firewall - all
wanting to
do things their own way.  Crimany!  I'd be lucky
to
see a truck drive through the dam data center.
