Re: Replaying pcaps through Snort

[Y M <snort () outlook com>]

Yes. The real pcap, for example, had src as 192.168.1.10 and dst as 192.168.1.15The test pcap, for example, had scr as 
192.168.2.133 and dst as 192.168.1.134  In both cases, the capture being replayed is from the source machine, and the 
rule direction was $HOME_NET -> $EXTERNAL_NET. In the real environment, this generated an alert and dropped the 
traffic. However, in the test environment, the same set of rules are not working. I had to flip the direction to 
$EXTERNAL_NET -> $HOME_NET, inluding src and dst ports. > Date: Sat, 6 Apr 2013 11:42:21 -0500
