I looked pretty hard for this information and couldn't find it, so maybe this will be useful to someone: it looks like rules with the same priority and similar action are processed in sid order. On 4/29/2014 5:35 PM, Dave Corsello wrote:
Let me narrow that down. Assume that no command line options or snort.conf options are used to change the order in which rule actions are taken, and that rule processing ends after the first hit. Basically, I want to know if changing the physical order of two drop rules with the same priority in my local.rules file makes a difference, or if there's some other default sort order that takes precedence.
