Service

Used to setup the snort_service for use in other resources.

Usage

An example usage pattern can be found in the test cookbook.

  • Use the snort_install to install the package. This also creates the snort_service resource which you can use to stop, start & enable the snort service correctly.

RHEL based systems you must use the following resources (optional on Debian based systems).

  • Use snort_config to configure the system.
  • Use snort_rules to install rules. You will need a licence for this.

Example configs can be found in test/fixtures/cookbooks/test/
