Re: Configuring snort as IPS

[Joel Esler <jesler () sourcefire com>]

Okay, I'm going to be pedantic for a minute.

Snortsam isn't "active response" it's "reactive response".  It will take
action after "x" occurs, post alert.  IPS, by our definition is the ability
to drop a packet inline, meaning *at* alert time.

I also don't think you have to patch Snort anymore to get Snortsam.  I
think it's built into Barynard2 now.
