Unusually High Client DNS Query Volume -- lots of hits.: msg#00167security.ids.snort.bleedingsnort
alert udp $HOME_NET any -> $DNS_SERVERS 53 (msg:"BLEEDING-EDGE POLICY Unusually High Client DNS Query Volume -- Possible Spambot"; threshold: type both, count 60, s econds 20, track by_src; classtype:misc-activity; sid:2003330; rev:1;) I am seeing lots of hits against this rule from machines that legitimately do lots of DNS lookups. EG print spoolers and other infrastructure. Comments say that these rules are experimental so I would suggest that to get rid of FPs in our environment you would need to raise the threshold substantially, this may however mean that it would perform its intended function.
