[Oisf-users] [OT: Pedantic] file truncated

Hi,

i wrote you some updates.
I sent my yaml in private to Peter Manev who responded me with a new one, the main changes where:
enabled max pending packets set to 16384
on NIC: 4 threads instead of auto, enabled mmap and ring-size
generally increased memcaps and decreased timeouts.
His cofig allowed file extraction of files of max 5mb.

I did other tests: i disabled IPV6 on eth1 with ethtool, then i ran 3 scripts i found under /opt/selks/Scripts/Tuning:
disable-interface-offloading_stamus.sh        idps-interface-tuneup_stamus  kernel-tuneup_stamus.sh
can someone give me some deepening on these scripts?

Now i often see md5 alerts some files (i tried 40k, 140k, 500k, 1m), not always, let's say 90% of my tests. Never for bigger files.
I still have reassembly gap but i don't have any invalid checksum now.

I modified the config to allow file extraction for bigger files but without success.

Peter feel free to correct me if i forgot something.

Miso

  Which supports my assertion regarding the case sensitivity of prefixes

  Quite so.
  It is semantically dubious in a larger context, but within the
confines of suricata's YAML documentation and usage, it is acceptable.
