Onderwerp:      Using IPFilter to blacklist IPs

Hello,

I was just wondering if IPFilter would be suitable for use in blocking a
list of Ips from getting through my firewall.  I'm using Snort inside my
LAN, and am seeing a lot of code red type attacks on my internal
servers.  Rather than just block those addresses on the specific
servers, I'd like to stop them at the firewall.

I know I could use a "block in quick from bad_IP" type rule, but as the
list of bad IP's grows, it seems harder to manage the ruleset.  Is there
a an easy way to maybe edit a blacklist file and have IPFilter read that
file?  Or is there some other tool that would be better for this
purpose?

Thanks a lot,

Adam Lofstedt
