Is it possible to ignore hosts in the stream 4 plug-in.
I have some load balancers that send out traffic that alerts very
frequently on this.
I really do not want to log this traffic.
Here is an example alert:

[**] [111:1:1] (spp_stream4) STEALTH ACTIVITY (unknown) detection [**]
04/10-11:46:11.071796 aaa.bbb.131.12:1050 -> aaa.bbb.135.123:80
TCP TTL:62 TOS:0x0 ID:5451 IpLen:20 DgmLen:40 DF
1****R** Seq: 0x462F0BD0  Ack: 0x0  Win: 0x0  TcpLen: 20

There really isn't an 'ignore' directive for stream4.  You'll have to use
a BPF filter.  You can look at the BPF part of this [0], and for more info
see the tcpdump manpage [1].

Cheers!
