Setting Up Policy-Based.rules file

["Kaplan, Andrew H." <AHKAPLAN () PARTNERS ORG>]

Hi there,

I am setting up a policy-based rules file to have Snort monitor traffic
coming from the Internet, while allowing
network traffic from the internal network to pass without incident. I want
to provide a blanket pass statement
for the internal network, and I want to verify several things:

1. I don't want, initally, to monitor any traffic going from the 10.1.0.0
network to any TCP/IP port on the server
   145.143.24.45. Therefore would the following statements work?

                pass ip 10.1.0.0/24 any -> 145.143.24.45 0:65534
                pass tcp 10.1.0.0/24 any -> 145.143.24.45 0:65534
                pass udp 10.1.0.0/24 any -> 145.143.24.45 0:65534

2. If I want, at a later date, to monitor particular port traffic, do I add
the ports I want to monitor AFTER the 
    blanket range shown in item 1, or do I add them BEFORE it?
