[Snort-users] Supressing alerts.

Subject: [Snort-users] Supressing alerts.
Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2005 09:14:09 -0500
Hi all.

Was wondering if you could help me suppress some alerts on my new snort box. Currently
[snort] (portscan) Open Port unclassified
[snort] (portscan) UDP Portsweep unclassified
[snort] (http_inspect) BARE BYTE UNICODE ENCODING


Are generating too many alerts. I have attempted to suppress these alerts in my snort.conf file like the following:
suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 27:
suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 19:
suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 4:


But those alerts keep on flooding my SQL database. Am I using the correct signature ID numbers? I don't know what else to try.

Thanks.
