RE: Internal Intrusion Detection/Prevention -- High Throughput -- Snort/Cisco/Others?

Some time ago I did a little survey on this.
Most of the leading vendors put a lot of energy in building up "real" IPv6 support.  Some of them actually do a nice 
job by now (supporting fragmentation and extension headers).  Of course there is still a lot of r&d to do.  In the end, 
it all comes down to signatures (reputation isn't a big issue right now, due to the lack of proliferation of IPv6). 
There, ratios of big vendors are between 20 and 60% of IPv6 signatures, compared to IPv4 signatures. They add, of 
course, support of IPv6 with the demand for it, which is still low but constantly rising. They try to have a solution 
ready when the big run (and thus, the big money) on IPv6 sets in.

Cheers,

Stefan

You know, I keep *hearing* about "full IPv6 support" from security vendors.  I would like to see what these pricey 
vendor solutions do up against a full IPv6 network fuzzer. Once you fragment or add multiple extension headers, I 
understand they crap themselves.

TippingPoint is a great solution for IPS/IDS.

IPv6 is fully supported, TippingPoint has a false positive rate lower than any other product in the space, 
TippingPoint is designed to be placed in-line to actively mitigate threats. TP is super low latency. To top it off 
the administrative burden is a fraction of other solutions.

Say if you want to monitor a handful of high bandwidth servers on 
the inside network without spending a fortune.

I was thinking about using a Cisco IDS, but they're a little pricey 
for high bandwidth models.


Any thoughts?



Thanks,

Sourcefire. They really are worth of the money.
