Hey Everyone,

Trying to whitelist an IP so I don’t receive alerts from it. Do I do this in the
threshold.conf? If so whats the proper way to write it?

try the reputation processor instead... whitelist the IPs you want to pass on
without molestation...

http://manual.snort.org/node176.html

and here's a link to copy of the README.reputation file...

bpf the IP out is the correct answer.


Putting the IP in the whitelist only whitelists the IP against the blacklist.  It has no effect on the rest of the 
engine.
