I have been stuck at the setup of Suricata in IPS mode for several days now, any help would be immensely appreciated. My basic procedure is to utilize the ports section of BSD to compile Suricata from source with the option for IPS. I wanted to put together an easy to follow guide for a fellow noob that included a Suricata engine dumping to unified2 with barnyard2 dumping this output to MySQL and BASE as a front-end... I'm stuck getting the IPS to work...<br>
<br>I'm using the loader.conf functionality to load the firewall module and the divert module at boot, I've got 2 interfaces (em0 and em1) and I've added the divert rule for port 8000 as rule 2000. When I try to ping or telnet through I get nothing... Do I need to create a NAT rule to NAT traffic to port 8000?<br>
<br>I've also tried compiling the "options IPFIREWALL" and "options IPDIVERT" just to be on the safe side before making this post.<br><br><br>Regard,<br><br>Chris<br>
