Hi all,
Snort 3.0 features multiple threads, and I wonder to know how to tune it to handle 10Gbps traffic? I know there are 
such documents to tune suricata to handle 10Gbps traffic, but I cannot find any document regarding snort 3.0 alpha, 
could you please share some ? Many thanks

Probably 172.31.39.0/24 (or that hosts specific IP if its the only machine you are worried about).

Thanks Al. My EC2 instance internal IP is inet addr:172.31.39.xxx. Should I in the case use 172.31.0.1/12 as the 
HOME_NET?


Thanks,
Paul

Probably needs to be a 172.16.0.0/12 address since I think that’s the default for private VPC’s.


But that it all depends on your addressing scheme and the resources you are trying to protect.

For Snort deployed on an AWS EC2, what value should be for HOME_NET  the snort.conf configuration? 


Thanks,
