Re: snort web interface

[Joel Esler <jesler () sourcefire com>]

I think this conversation is interesting.  I haven't used a GUI interface for Snort in years, since before Snorby was 
around.  

I'd like to see a comparison paper between the different varying interfaces that are out right now.  I put a blog post 
up awhile back on the http://blog.snort.org, but it wasn't nearly enough.  

Let's leave the insults on the sidelines and highlight the good and bad of each interface, and perhaps, if there are 
shortfalls,  let's point them out, hopefully the developers (BASE included, not just you Dustin) will take the 
shortfalls and add to their respective projects.

For instance I'd be interested to know if Snorby (I know BASE doesn't, as it reads from the DB) supports IPv6 
addressing and the new additional data fields that we put in unified2 in Snort 2.9.1?
