Hi all,

I am getting may false alerts (spp_ssh) Protocol mismatch from 1 machine we use to scan our machines for open 
ports. I have tried everything I can think of so as not too have these alerts show up in BASE. All the alertds come 
from 1 IP Address so is there anything I can do so that they don't get written to the DB.
