What order are rules processed when using IDS?
« on: July 20, 2020, 02:51:26 pm »
When using Intrusion Detection, what rules are processed first?

I have normal Firewall rules I would like processed before IDS is processed. Is this the default, or if not, how can I ensure my own rules are processed prior to IDS rules being processed?

Kind regards
Pete

No, first there is Suricata, then cames the Firewall. You can only flip if you let it listen to LAN instead of WAN

Hmm, that is disappointing. Thanks for clarifying.

IPS/netmap listens in the NIC while pf rules are processed in kernel.
It's the same as with Linux/iptables ...
