    You could run snort in tcpdump modethen do a tcpdump on the snort log
    with the options of tcpdump -eXvvr log.file src ip host ip or you can
    use port #.

    Ex tcpdump -eXvvr 090503snort.log src 192.168.1.1 host 192.168.2.1
    port 135

    Hope that helps a bit. It is just a small example look into it there
    is a lot you can do with it.

    Subject: Slickest way to capture all packets inbound and outbound for
    a specific IP address, or range?

    I'm curious what the best way would be to capture all packets inbound
    or
    outbound for a specific IP address or range of IP addresses would be?
     The
    scenario would be this ..

    I suspect an IP address of being involved in an intrusion into an
    application on my network. The relevant system has been patched, but
    I
    would still like to capture the full packets for any inbound and
    outbound
    activity for that IP address on a machine outside of my firewall.

    Would Snort be a good way to do this, or is there a quicker/slimmer
    solution?

    Thanks!

    Mark
