Re: Restarting Snort-inline?

[Will Metcalf <william.metcalf () gmail com>]

You can restart the process because in bridge mode if you are are only
send traffic moving through the bridge to snort inline i.e. -A FORWARD
-j QUEUE then you won't affect your remote connection.  Any traffic
that is terminated on an interface even if it is a bridge interface is
traffic that comes in through the INPUT chain.  So in otherwords, just
try it.

Yes, if you change a rule or a config file you have to restart snort.

Regards,

Will
