Stream5 does not do mac address tracking.

Hi Waldo,

Thank you for reply.yes you're right. I am doing a project with snort and my project manager wants me to test snort 
session hijacking detection capability. If we assume that attacker does not use spoofed MAC address, similarity between 
session hijacking and mitm is that in both, MAC address of on side changes. So snort should detect this MAC address 
changing with stream5. Is it correct?

session hijacking and mitm are not the same...

session hijacking is where you take over or continue with someone's existing or
previous session...

mitm is where you are in the middle and have valid sessions with both parties
and pass their traffic across while doing what you want with it in the middle...
