I have the exact same problem.  I hope someone can pass a clue as to
what might be causing this.

My first thought is that the EXTERNAL_NET variable isn't set right.
Is that assigned as "any"?

Subject: [Snort-users] Promiscuous monitoring



I have Snort 1.8.6 running on Red Hat 7.3 with ACID and MySQL.  I start
Snort with the -v option to verify that Snort is seeing traffic and all
seems well.  My only problem is that attacks (ones I generate myself) are
only logged if directed at the Snort IP address.  If I direct an attack to
another machine on the same subnet, Snort does not identify the attack (yes
I am running a hub and not a switch...:-)).  Sounds like something simple to
me, I am just not sure what it is.

 

Thanks,
