<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hello everyone!<br><br></div>I would like to ask a (dumb?) question. I am learning about Suricata and when I run it in IDS mode it shows that I have "all 4 processing threads, 4 management threads", so I understand that Suricata is using all the threads that are available to do management tasks ( receive-, decode-, stream-, detect-, verdict-, reject- and outputs-set). However, when I run Suricata in IPS mode it shows all 6 processing threads but only uses 4 threads for management. Why is that happening?</div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div>Regards,<br><br></div>Alexis Fredes<br></div><div id="DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><br> <table style="border-top:1px solid #d3d4de">
