Subject: SPAM-Phrase [Snort-users] Can't suppress "(snort decoder) Bad Traffic Same Src/Dst IP"


I have 2 machines for which this traffic is "normal" I have looked for the rule that triggers SPECIFFICALLY this alert 
. I can't find it the SID is 1:151 but there is no matching description; this SID points to other alerts (BACKDOOR D e 
e p T  h r o a t 3.1 Client Sending Data to Server on Network). There is another BAD TRAFFIC alert and I was able to 
suppress that one. I was advised on the sonrt.org forum to upgrade from 2.4.0 to 2.4.1 but I made the jump to 2.4.2 and 
I am still getting overloaded with these alerts. I have tried the RTFM approach .. I have searched the snort forums and 
read through any relevant posts I can find .. All to no avail . any help would be greatly appreciated.
