Re: PF_RING and DNA with Snort

It looks like in newer versions of PF_RING you have to specify multiple 
clusterid values when using inline mode:

pfring-daq-module/README.1st suggests: "--daq-var clusterid=10,11" in 
the IPS example.

and also explains the clusterid var as:
"--daq-var clusterid=<comma separated id list>
where an id is a number (i.e. the clusterId), one for each interface."

It also looks like you are not currently using DNA interfaces, you need 
to make sure to load the correct driver (PF_RING/drivers/DNA/<driver 
version>) and start snort using the DNA interfaces the driver creates if 
you want to use DNA.

Is there an up to date example of using pfring, and dan with Snort?

I used the metaflows example, and am running into issues when trying to run snort

Using this I get an error
snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -A console -y -i eth0:eth1 --daq-dir /usr/local/lib/daq --daq pfring --daq-var 
clusterid=10 --daq-mode inline –Q

pfring DAQ configured to inline.
eth0 <-> eth1
ERROR: Can't initialize DAQ pfring (-1) - pfring_daq_initialize: not enough cluster ids (1)

Fatal Error, Quitting..


And using this I get an error
snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -A console -y -i eth0:eth1 --daq-dir /usr/local/lib/daq --daq pfring --daq-mode inline 
–Q

pfring DAQ configured to inline.
eth0 <-> eth1
ERROR: Can't initialize DAQ pfring (-1) -
Fatal Error, Quitting..


Any help would be great!
