| Subject: | [Snort-users] Perfmonitor / BPF Question |
|---|---|
| Date: | Wed, 16 Jan 2008 10:03:58 -0500 |
I have a sensor deployed with a BPF file to filter out our network vulnerability scanners to keep the noise down. I notice when the scanner makes a sweep that the dropped packets increase quite a bit. My question is does the perfmonitor count packets dropped by the BPF in the stats it tracks? That would explain the jumps in packet loss. -- Robert Sharp robertsharp@gmail.com
