So I have a snort rule that detects syn flood attacks that looks like this:




alert tcp any any -> $HOME_NET 80 (msg:”SYN Flood - SSH"; flags:S;
flow: stateless; detection_filter: track by_dst, count 40, seconds 10;
GID:1; sid:10000002; rev:001; classtype:attempted-dos;)




The problem is, when I trigger it using tcpreplay (With a Ddos.pcapng file):




sudo tcpreplay -i interface /home/Practicak/DDoS.pcapng




When listening on my VM1, and after running the TCP replay, I get a lot of alerts.. E.G. 100s of Syn Flood Detected alerts.



How can I limit this so that I only get few / 1 alert for each Syn Flood that is initiated? I.E. using the TCPReplay with the pcap file.. & is this good practice to display less alerts?



Thanks
