Ralf,
 
Thanks for your reply.  You mean that I comment out alert line in the netbios rule of rules folder as the following
 

# alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HOME_NET 139 (msg:"NETBIOS SMB IPC$ share access"; flow:established,to_server; 
content:"|00|"; offset:0; depth:1; content:"|FF|SMBu"; distance:3; within:5; byte_test:1,!&,128,6,relative; 
pcre:"/^.{27}/R"; byte_jump:2,7,little,relative; content:"IPC|24 00|"; nocase; distance:2; 
flowbits:set,smb.tree.connect.ipc; classtype:protocol-command-decode; sid:537; rev:14;)...

If I do not want to include netbios rule completely, what's the better way to do it?
 
Thanks,
 
John

Hi,

the first is not dangerous and the second is hopefully patched. You can
suppress these alerts but I would simply comment out the related rules.

10.1.12.14 is workstation or server IP. What's the better way
to ignore these alerts? (suppress?) BTW, why does it generate many
these alerts and is it dangerous?



Thanks,



John
