Hey Everyone,



Trying to whitelist an IP so I don’t receive alerts from it. Do I do this in the

threshold.conf? If so whats the proper way to write it?



try
 the reputation processor instead... whitelist the IPs you want to pass on 
without
 molestation...

http://manual.snort.org/node176.html

and
 here's a link to copy of the README.reputation file...

bpf the IP out is the correct answer.






Putting the IP in the whitelist only whitelists the IP against the blacklist.  It has no effect on the rest of the 
engine.


Joel,
Even when white is set to trust? If I am reading the documentation correctly, it says "when white means trust, the 
packet gets bypassed, without further detection by snort". What does "...without further detection by snort" mean in 
this context?
