SNORT-REP(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation SNORT-REP(1) NAME snort-rep - snort-reporting tool SYNOPSIS snort-rep [OPTIONS] [syslog-file] DESCRIPTION snort-rep is a Snort reporting tool that can produce text or HTML output from a syslog file. If syslog-file is not specified, it will use standard-input. The reports contain: • Portscan summary • Alert Summary by ID • Alert summary by remote host and ID • Alert summary by local host and ID • Alert summary by local port and ID It is designed to be used for daily e-mail reports to the system administrators (see snort-rep-mail for an example script that generates daily e-mails). All reports contain priority information (if used with Snort 1.8+) and the HTML output contains direct links to the IDS descriptions of whitehats.com. OPTIONS -h, --help Print usage. -r, --resolve Resolve host names. -s, --source=SOURCE[,SOURCE...] Read information from SOURCE (in addition to syslog-file). This option can be specified multiple times. If syslog-file is not specified and no --sources option is used, standard input will be read in syslog format. SOURCE is a comma separated list of sources which may be: syslog:FILE Syslog file FILE fast:FILE Snort "fast-alert" file FILE -t, --text Print text report (default). If both --text and --html are specified, both will be printed, separated by a line like '<<<<<' (79 times '<'). --text-width=n Try to fit the text report to n columns. Default: 79. -H, --html Print HTML report. -l, --local=NET[,NET...] NET is a local network. This options can be specified more than once and can contain more than one network (comma-separated). NET must be specified as "network/mask", for example "192.168.1.0/24". -F, --local-file=FILE FILE contains list of local networks, as given in -l (one network per line). FILE can contain hash comments and empty lines. -R, --remove-name=REGEX Remove REGEX from host names. This option is useful to make nicer host names for local hosts. --priority-med=N Priorities greater or equal N will be considered "medium priority" (default: 7). --priority-high=N Priorities greater or equal N will be considered "high priority" (default: 16). High-priority alerts will be pushed on the top of the reports. -N, --narrow Try to make the reports better fit on the screen by trimming too long host-names and placing spaces in the alert descriptions so that they can be word-wrapped.
