Hello Richard,

I believe something like the following should work, without the use of 'flow' 
in the rule.

alert tcp any !PORTS -> any !PORTS

The rule needs apply to packets going to and coming from the ports in the 
PORTS list.  I have not found the "->" token to do anything to enforce 
direction since at least 2.4.3.  I've had to rely on the 'flow' option to 
enforce a packet direction for TCP sessions.


Hi John,

Wow, that is an interesting observation regarding -> and 2.4.3.  Can
anyone from Sourcefire confirm this?

Thank you,

Richard
