Allowing windows updates to pass through snort

[Doug Olitsky <doug_olitsky () yahoo com>]

OK, I'm a beginner at this and after months of trying to read and teach 
myself I cry uncle...

I have Snort running on a pfSense gateway I built a year ago. For the 
life of me I cannot figure out how to prevent windows updates from being 
blocked. My lame solution is to disable Snort for updates and then 
restart when done.


I tried setting IPS to Connectivity and even disabling it along w/ the 
community rules to no avail.

Any guidance is appreciated
