The link isn't valid at this time, as that functionality has not been moved
from the old snort.org to the current web design.

The part you are interested in is the number
in the URL.

Thanks for the reply Brian. The 'snort' reference
link takes me to the page saying 'The page you are looking for isn’t here'. I
assume the link is produced by snort output and upgraded snort to the most
recent release 2.8.5 but the error is still there. Is this normal or a real
error?

  In
  BASE if you click on the snort link in the signature it will take you to a
  Snort page that gives you an error, if you look at the end of the link you
  will see something like 1:3254, the first number is the gen_id and the seconed
  number is the sig_id.

  How do I get the value for gen_id, sig_id from the Base
  output to put in threshold.conf file?

You should place the suppressions in the threshold.conf file.
     Make sure that the file is also uncommented in the snort.conf file.
     (It's at the very bottom of the stock file)
