Package: fwsnort (1.5-2.1)

[ Source: fwsnort  ]

Snort-to-iptables rule translator

Fwsnort translates Snort rules into equivalent iptables rules and generates a shell script that implements the resulting iptables commands.

This allows network traffic that matches Snort signatures to be logged and/or dropped by iptables directly without putting any interface into promiscuous mode or queuing packets from kernel to user space.

Tags: Implemented in: Perl, User Interface: Command Line, Networking: network::firewall, role::program, Security: Intrusion Detection
