ABout the flow rule

What are the differences between the option to_client and from server


to_client and from_server are the same, however you could say it matter of style which one you use.

In some rules you might want to use "from_server" just to imply that it's exploits against the server you are concerned about. "to client" generally implies you're concerned about exploit against the client. However, they are interchangeable, and the difference will only be in the eyes of a human reading the rule.
