Mike,

To look at the packet that triggered the attack, you have to enable the
TriggerPacket (also known as CapturePacket) flag on the signature.  Once
this is enabled, a pcap-format packet will be delivered to the monitoring
console with the alert.

Actually, that's not quite correct, Billy?

Cisco IPS 5.0 is just around the corner, and is a full-fledged 
appliance-based IPS product.  It will support various drop actions, as 
well as traffic normalization and antivirus/antiworm.

Can you explain this a little more?  We have a few 4240's in place now (not
inline, obviously), and we're looking forward to 5.0 (though getting more
and more annoyed at the slipping ship dates), so I'd love to go ahead and
get a head start on some of the new features.

And while I'm at it, am I totally missing a way to get a look at the actual
packets that trigger the alerts?
