DESCRIPTION
Snort is an open source network intrusion detection system, capable of
performing real-time traffic analysis and packet logging on IP net-
works. It can perform protocol analysis, content searching/matching
and can be used to detect a variety of attacks and probes, such as
buffer overflows, stealth port scans, CGI attacks, SMB probes, OS fin-
gerprinting attempts, and much more. Snort uses a flexible rules lan-
guage to describe traffic that it should collect or pass, as well as a
detection engine that utilizes a modular plugin architecture. Snort
also has a modular real-time alerting capability, incorporating alert-
ing and logging plugins for syslog, a ASCII text files, UNIX sockets,
database (Mysql/PostgreSQL/Oracle/ODBC) or XML.
Snort has three primary uses. It can be used as a straight packet
sniffer like tcpdump(1), a packet logger (useful for network traffic
debugging, etc), or as a full blown network intrusion detection system.
Snort logs packets in tcpdump(1) binary format, to a database or in
Snort's decoded ASCII format to a hierarchy of logging directories that
are named based on the IP address of the "foreign" host.
OPTIONS
-A alert-mode
Alert using the specified alert-mode. Valid alert modes include
fast, full, none, and unsock. Fast writes alerts to the default
"alert" file in a single-line, syslog style alert message. Full
writes the alert to the "alert" file with the full decoded
header as well as the alert message. None turns off alerting.
Unsock is an experimental mode that sends the alert information
out over a UNIX socket to another process that attaches to that
socket.
-b Log packets in a tcpdump(1) formatted file. All packets are
logged in their native binary state to a tcpdump formatted log
file named with the snort start timestamp and "snort.log". This
option results in much faster operation of the program
since it doesn't have to spend time in the packet binary->text
converters. Snort can keep up pretty well with 100Mbps networks
in '-b' mode. To choose an alternate name for the binary log
file, use the '-L' switch.
-B address-conversion-mask
Convert all IP addresses in home-net to addresses specified by
address-conversion-mask. Used to obfuscate IP addresses within
binary logs. Specify home-net with the '-h' switch. Note this
is not the same as $HOME_NET.
-c config-file
Use the rules located in file config-file.
-C Print the character data from the packet payload only (no hex).
-d Dump the application layer data when displaying packets in ver-
bose or packet logging mode.
-D Run Snort in daemon mode. Alerts are sent to
/var/log/snort/alert unless otherwise specified.
-e Display/log the link layer packet headers.
-E *WIN32 ONLY* Log alerts to the Windows Event Log.
-f Activate PCAP line buffering
-F bpf-file
Read BPF filters from bpf-file. This is handy for people run-
ning Snort as a SHADOW replacement or with a love Of super com-
plex BPF filters. See the "expressions" section of this man
page for more info on writing BPF fileters.
-g group
Change the group/GID Snort runs under to group after initializa-
tion. This switch allows Snort to drop root priveleges after
it's initialization phase has completed as a security measure.
-G id Use id as a base event ID when logging events. Useful for dis-
tinguishing events logged to the same database from multiple
snort instances.
-h home-net
Set the "home network" to home-net. The format of this address
variable is a network prefix plus a CIDR block, such as
192.168.1.0/24. Once this variable is set, all decoded packet
logging will be done relative to the home network address space.
This is useful because of the way that Snort formats its ASCII
log data. With this value set to the local network, all decoded
output will be logged into decode directories with the address
of the foreign computer as the directory name, which is very
useful during traffic analysis.
-i interface
Sniff packets on interface.
-I Print out the receiving interface name in alerts.
-J port
Use port to read packets when running inline mode on system with
divert socket.
-k checksum-mode
Tune the internal checksum verification functionality with
alert-mode. Valid checksum modes include all, noip, notcp,
noudp, noicmp, and none. All activates checksum verification
for all supported protocols. Noip turns off IP checksum verifi-
cation, which is handy if the gateway router is already dropping
packets that fail their IP checksum checks. Notcp turns off TCP
checksum verification, all other checksum modes are on. noudp
turns off UDP checksum verification. Noicmp turns off ICMP
checksum verification. None turns off the entire checksum veri-
fication subsystem.
-K logging-mode
Select a packet logging mode. The default is pcap. logging-
mode. Valid logging modes include pcap, ascii, and none. Pcap
logs packets through the pcap library into pcap (tcpdump) for-
mat. Ascii logs packets in the old "directories and files" for-
mat with packet printouts in each file. None Turns off packet
logging.
-l log-dir
Set the output logging directory to log-dir. All plain text
alerts and packet logs go into this directory. If this option
is not specified, the default logging directory is set to
/var/log/snort.
-L binary-log-file
Set the filename of the binary log file to binary-log-file. If
this switch is not used, the default name is a timestamp for the
time that the file is created plus "snort.log".
-m umask
Set the file mode creation mask to umask
-M Log console messages to syslog when not running daemon mode.
This switch has no impact on logging of alerts.
-n packet-count
Process packet-count packets and exit.
-N Turn off packet logging. The program still generates alerts
normally.
-o Change the order in which the rules are applied to packets.
Instead of being applied in the standard Alert->Pass->Log order,
this will apply them in Pass->Alert->Log order.
-O Obfuscate the IP addresses when in ASCII packet dump mode. This
switch changes the IP addresses that get printed to the
screen/log file to "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx". If the homenet address
switch is set (-h), only addresses on the homenet will be obfus-
cated while non- homenet IPs will be left visible. Perfect for
posting to your favorite security mailing list!
-p Turn off promiscuous mode sniffing.
-P snap-length
Set the packet snaplen to snap-length
-q Quiet operation. Don't display banner and initialization infor-
mation.
-Q Read packets from iptables/IPQ (Linux only) when running in-line
mode.
-r tcpdump-file
Read the tcpdump-formatted file tcpdump-file. This will cause
Snort to read and process the file fed to it. This is useful
if, for instance, you've got a bunch of SHADOW files that you
want to process for content, or even if you've got a bunch of
reassembled packet fragments which have been written into a tcp-
dump formatted file.
-R name
Use name as a suffix to the snort pidfile.
-s Send alert messages to syslog. On linux boxen, they will appear
in /var/log/secure, /var/log/messages on many other platforms.
-S variable=value
Set variable name "variable" to value "value". This is useful
for setting the value of a defined variable name in a Snort
rules file to a command line specified value. For instance, if
you define a HOME_NET variable name inside of a Snort rules
file, you can set this value from it's predefined value at the
command line.
-t chroot
Changes Snort's root directory to chroot after initialization.
Please note that all log/alert filenames are relative to the
chroot directory if chroot is used.
-T Snort will start up in self-test mode, checking all the supplied
command line switches and rules files that are handed to it and
indicating that everything is ready to proceed. This is a good
switch to use if daemon mode is going to be used, it verifies
that the Snort configuration that is about to be used is valid
and won't fail at run time. Note, Snort looks for either
/etc/snort.conf or ./snort.conf. If your config lives else-
where, use the -c option to specify a valid config-file.
-u user
Change the user/UID Snort runs under to user after initializa-
tion.
-U Changes the timestamp in all logs to be in UTC
-v Be verbose. Prints packets out to the console. There is one
big problem with verbose mode: it's slow. If you are doing IDS
work with Snort, don't use the '-v' switch, you WILL drop pack-
ets.
-V Show the version number and exit.
-w Show management frames if runnong on an 802.11 (wireless) net-
work.
-W *WIN32 ONLY* Enumerate the network interfaces available.
-X Dump the raw packet data starting at the link layer. This
switch overrides the
-y Include the year in alert and log files
-Z pathname
Set the perfmonitor preprocessor path/filename to pathname.
-? Show the program usage statement and exit.

--dynamic-preprocessor-lib-dir directory
Load all dynamic preprocessor shared libraries specified from
directory.
--dump-dynamic-preproc-genmsg directory

pass before alert, drop, etc.
--treat-drop-as-alert
Converts drop, sdrop, and reject rules into alert rules during
startup.
--process-all-events
Process all triggered events in group order, per Rule Ordering
configuration. Default stops after first group.
--pid-path directory
Specify the path for Snort's PID file.
--create-pidfile
Create PID file, even when not in Daemon mode.
expression
selects which packets will be dumped. If no expression is
given, all packets on the net will be dumped. Otherwise, only
packets for which expression is `true' will be dumped.
The expression consists of one or more primitives. Primitives
usually consist of an id (name or number) preceded by one or
more qualifiers. There are three different kinds of qualifier:
type qualifiers say what kind of thing the id name or number
refers to. Possible types are host, net and port. E.g.,
`host foo', `net 128.3', `port 20'. If there is no type
qualifier, host is assumed.
dir qualifiers specify a particular transfer direction to
and/or from id. Possible directions are src, dst, src or
dst and src and dst. E.g., `src foo', `dst net 128.3',
`src or dst port ftp-data'. If there is no dir quali-
fier, src or dst is assumed. For `null' link layers
(i.e. point to point protocols such as slip) the inbound
and outbound qualifiers can be used to specify a desired
direction.
proto qualifiers restrict the match to a particular protocol.
Possible protos are: ether, fddi, ip, arp, rarp, decnet,
lat, sca, moprc, mopdl, tcp and udp. E.g., `ether src
foo', `arp net 128.3', `tcp port 21'. If there is no
proto qualifier, all protocols consistent with the type
are assumed. E.g., `src foo' means `(ip or arp or rarp)
src foo' (except the latter is not legal syntax), `net
bar' means `(ip or arp or rarp) net bar' and `port 53'
means `(tcp or udp) port 53'.
[`fddi' is actually an alias for `ether'; the parser treats them
identically as meaning ``the data link level used on the speci-
fied network interface.'' FDDI headers contain Ethernet-like
source and destination addresses, and often contain Ethernet-
like packet types, so you can filter on these FDDI fields just
as with the analogous Ethernet fields. FDDI headers also con-
tain other fields, but you cannot name them explicitly in a fil-
ter expression.]
In addition to the above, there are some special `primitive'
keywords that don't follow the pattern: gateway, broadcast,
less, greater and arithmetic expressions. All of these are
described below.
More complex filter expressions are built up by using the words
and, or and not to combine primitives. E.g., `host foo and not
port ftp and not port ftp-data'. To save typing, identical
qualifier lists can be omitted. E.g., `tcp dst port ftp or ftp-
data or domain' is exactly the same as `tcp dst port ftp or tcp
dst port ftp-data or tcp dst port domain'.
Allowable primitives are:
dst host host
True if the IP destination field of the packet is host,
which may be either an address or a name.
src host host
True if the IP source field of the packet is host.
host host
True if either the IP source or destination of the packet
is host. Any of the above host expressions can be
prepended with the keywords, ip, arp, or rarp as in:
ip host host
which is equivalent to:
ether proto \ip and host host
If host is a name with multiple IP addresses, each
address will be checked for a match.
ether dst ehost
True if the ethernet destination address is ehost. Ehost
may be either a name from /etc/ethers or a number (see
ethers(3N) for numeric format).
ether src ehost
True if the ethernet source address is ehost.
ether host ehost
True if either the ethernet source or destination address
is ehost.
gateway host
True if the packet used host as a gateway. I.e., the
ethernet source or destination address was host but nei-
ther the IP source nor the IP destination was host. Host
must be a name and must be found in both /etc/hosts and
/etc/ethers. (An equivalent expression is
ether host ehost and not host host
which can be used with either names or numbers for host /
ehost.)
dst net net
True if the IP destination address of the packet has a
network number of net. Net may be either a name from
/etc/networks or a network number (see networks(4) for
details).
src net net
True if the IP source address of the packet has a network
number of net.
net net
True if either the IP source or destination address of
the packet has a network number of net.
net net mask mask
True if the IP address matches net with the specific net-
mask. May be qualified with src or dst.
net net/len
True if the IP address matches net a netmask len bits
wide. May be qualified with src or dst.
dst port port
True if the packet is ip/tcp or ip/udp and has a destina-
tion port value of port. The port can be a number or a
name used in /etc/services (see tcp(4P) and udp(4P)). If
a name is used, both the port number and protocol are
checked. If a number or ambiguous name is used, only the
port number is checked (e.g., dst port 513 will print
both tcp/login traffic and udp/who traffic, and port
domain will print both tcp/domain and udp/domain traf-
fic).
src port port
True if the packet has a source port value of port.
port port
True if either the source or destination port of the
packet is port. Any of the above port expressions can be
prepended with the keywords, tcp or udp, as in:
tcp src port port
which matches only tcp packets whose source port is port.
less length
True if the packet has a length less than or equal to
length. This is equivalent to:
len = length.
ip proto protocol
True if the packet is an ip packet (see ip(4P)) of proto-
col type protocol. Protocol can be a number or one of
the names icmp, igrp, udp, nd, or tcp. Note that the
identifiers tcp, udp, and icmp are also keywords and must
be escaped via backslash (\), which is \\ in the C-shell.
ether broadcast
True if the packet is an ethernet broadcast packet. The
ether keyword is optional.
ip broadcast
True if the packet is an IP broadcast packet. It checks
for both the all-zeroes and all-ones broadcast conven-
tions, and looks up the local subnet mask.
ether multicast
True if the packet is an ethernet multicast packet. The
ether keyword is optional. This is shorthand for
`ether[0] & 1 != 0'.
ip multicast
True if the packet is an IP multicast packet.
ether proto protocol
True if the packet is of ether type protocol. Protocol
can be a number or a name like ip, arp, or rarp. Note
these identifiers are also keywords and must be escaped
via backslash (\). [In the case of FDDI (e.g., `fddi
protocol arp'), the protocol identification comes from
the 802.2 Logical Link Control (LLC) header, which is
usually layered on top of the FDDI header. Tcpdump
assumes, when filtering on the protocol identifier, that
all FDDI packets include an LLC header, and that the LLC
header is in so-called SNAP format.]
decnet src host
True if the DECNET source address is host, which may be
an address of the form ``10.123'', or a DECNET host name.
