Re: snort-inline vs. firewall

hmmm you will have to use iptables or any other firewall to protect your
network. If you talk about inline snort it will detect attack and block this
attack via iptables, ipchains , pix firewall like that..

Subject: [Snort-users] snort-inline vs. firewall


| Hi all,
|
| Iim not much familiar about snort-inline, but know its
| theory and about IPS's.
|
| Now we have a IPTables firewall, would it be better to
| replace IPTables firewall with the IPs, since it is an
| intelligent and would keep my network more secure.
|
| Where all can I use IPS or snort-inline?
|
| Any issues with it like speed, resources, maintenance?
|
| Any experiences?
|
| Regards,
| Bishan
