Re: HOWTO Ignore specific IP addresses

Hi,

use BPF filter directives on the command line
snort [...] not host 192.168.1.1 and not host ...

That is the fastest way. See tcpdump manpage for more
options. You can filter on flags, protocols, ports etc.

Regards,

Edin

Hi All,

OK slowly going brain dead here.

Current set-up is two web servers attached to a SNAZ NFS server.

When I kick Snort into action it works fine BUT I get literally hundreds of
false positives :

BAD TRAFFIC bad frag bits
MISC Large UDP Packet

A simple solution is to tell Snort to ignore this server
completely....Simply put how do I get Snort to ignore this machine
completely?

All help appreciated.

With thanks

Mike
