Hello,

I have a couple of questions and will appreciate, if you can help me with
that:

We are planning to implement an NIDS and I am in the process of getting an
NIDS for evaluation and testing.

What kind of features should I be testing and what kind of test topology
(e.g firewalls etc.) should I
be using ?  Any help will be appreciated ?  Thanks.


Regards.
