        @blackkep If you want an alternative for DROP, you can use pfBlocker and pick DROP from its feed list. Then create a regular firewall block rule via the feed set as Alias Native, or have it create the rule via Deny.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

              Not sure I understand the questionโ€ฆif you are using pfBlocker you can disable the category in Snort. No need to scan twice.

                @steveits It is very strange that snort has canceled the DROP rule and is still running

                  @blackkep Did you restart Snort in that interface to pick up the new settings? Check if multiple Snort processes are running and if so end them or restart your router.
