Re: Thresholding & Suppressing

Suppress, as you can see, only works with one flag or the other.

you could write a pass rule in the local.rules to allow this traffic
between those ports and ip's

you could also write a bpf to use to have snort ignore that traffic
and port completely.

i myself tend to write pass rules when I need this, but that's just me.

Guys,

I'm looking to completely suppress an alert from one specific IP to another specific IP, but I want to alert on 
others.  Is this possible?

I tried:

suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 1948, track by_src, ip 1.2.3.4/32, track by_dst, ip 5.6.7.8/32

But I get:

"ERROR: threshold.conf(60) suppress has extra option of type: track.
Fatal Error, Quitting.."


It appears I can either suppress by source OR by destination, but I need BOTH.

Ideas?

Brad
