RE: Customizing snort rules

Hi Edin,

I have properly defined the HOME_NET and EXTERNAL_NET variables??
The rules that are getting triggered are SNMP rules.i.e. whenever our NMS
management server polls some devices,the rule triggers.
I want to be able to disable these triggers for some specific IP hosts. The
SNMP rule should not be disabled and continue to look for SNMP traffic.


Thanks and Regards   

Simon

Hi,

I don't _really_ get your problem: Have you properly defined your 
HOME_NET and EXTERNAL_NET?

Could you please specify the rules that trigger?

Regards,
Edin

Hi,

Can anyone point me in the direction of any document explaining how to
customize snort rules.
I have a situation wherein the Snort IDS is alerting even for normal SNMP
requests and traps. How do it disable these alerts for only specific SNMP
management stations but keep the SNMP rule turned on??

Thanks and Regards   

Simon
