Re pp: 30-36 I think I catch your drift (ie: using cisco netflow to
detect a synflood?) but would you care to summarize just in case because
I am not this savvy, but would like to understand.

Also in regards to snort inline, I've been trying to figure out whether
or not Snort/DAQ/NFQ (netfilter) is appropriate or not. I cannot get
this to work but it seems like on a gatway, for example where I have all
of this iptables stuff that NFQ would be appropriate and would probably
help with all of the false positives (3 way handshake and a couple of
others) I see when trying to use the pcap driver (the only one that will
work.)
