Title: Suricata 1.4.6 IDS package for pfSense

Suricata 1.4.6
--------------------
This is an initial port of Suricata for pfSense. It operates in IDS (intrusion detection) mode and does not currently provide dropping or blocking of network traffic. The dropping/blocking feature will be incorporated into later a later release. Suricata supports a number of advanced IDS features including extensive HTTP session logging and the optional capture and storage of downloaded files for later analysis. It offers full packet capture and supports unified2 log output for use with Barnyard2. The Barnyard2 implementation included with the Suricata package on pfSense can log to both a MySQL database and/or a local or remote syslog receiver.

Details on the Suricata IDS/IPS can be found at http://suricata-ids.org/

This is Beta software for pfSense and is not yet recommended for production systems.
