Re: Suppress alerts

[Joel Esler <joel.esler () sourcefire com>]

The threshold.conf is probably in your /rules directory.  (The  
directory is located in your snort.conf  Search your snort.conf for  
"threshold.conf" and you'll see the include statement.

The Generator ID and SID are located in gid-msg.map and sid-msg.map.   
Probably in your rules directory.
