Barnyard2-1.7 … Can’t wait anymore? Grab Beta 4!
As you may, or may not, have noticed … Snort 2.8.5 has finally arrived! This has introduced some interesting things into the unified2 file format most notably of which is recording of vlan id tags when compiled with the appropriate flags.
In order to support the best support these new features, we’ve taken the time to merge all pertitent changes from the Snort 2.8.4.1 to 2.8.5 transition into our code base.
There is bound to be some form of breakage because it’s hard to test every compiler/argument/config option combination, until I finally get around to writing the unit testing framework. Fortunately, you guys are quick to point out any issues so I’m happy to get things moving.
Grab the latest beta and let us know how you go!
