Linux distro for Snort inline as IPS

[Sec_Aficiondado <secaficionado () gmail com>]

Hi there,

Apologies if this has been asked before but web searches are not helping me in this regard today.

I was wondering if there is a particularly well suited, stripped down, Linux distribution that could be used for a 
machine only running Snort inline as an IPS. Ideally something that only has the components Snort needs and nothing 
more.

VMs are OK too.

Thanks!
