I'm not sure, but maybe it's related to the value at " /proc/sys/net/nf_conntrack_max " or " /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_<div id=":2s7">conntrack_buckets "<br>You can increase this values with for example <br>

echo "123456" > /proc/sys/net/nf_conntrack_max<br>
If not, maybe you can try to search that limit value of 200 with..<br>find /proc/sys/net/ -name "*conntrack*" -exec echo {} \; -exec grep 200 {} \;<br>Anyway, 200 entries by default seems to be a low value.<br>

<br>
You may also want to enable/increase the value of max-pending-packets at suricata.yaml<br>Let us know if you find out a solution.<br><br></div><br clear="all">Best regards,<br>--<br>Pablo Rincón Crespo<br>Security researcher and developer<br>
