Nick,
If you don't want to receive the sfPortscan alerts, then turn off the
preprocessor and restart Snort.

I am seeing a bunch the MACDAD entries in my snort.logs. From what I
understand Snort's portscan detector wraps the packets with the info
like the 4d:41:43:44:41:44 MAC's, proto255 and such so it can bundle
them all up.
If I wanted to ignore these packets how could I set this? Would I
have to comment out the preprocessor flow line? Is the flow tracking
still only detecting portscans? Will this hinder anything else if I
comment this out or is there a better way to do this?
Thanks,
Nick Baronian
