Fixes: Enhanced Default Tuning of Templates to Improve Alert Reduction
All product templates have been rewritten and fine-tuned to detect intrusions resulting
in the consolidation of two templates and introduction of new templates properties. The
new correlator, along with other optimizations and performance enhancements result in
faster and more efficient processing by the agent, thereby allowing for increased
throughput and reduced CPU utilization as compared to older versions.A number of new
template properties have been introduced to reduce the number of unnecessary alerts.
Fixes: Enhanced Option for idsadmin
A [-f schedule_file] option is added to idsadmin to improve administration via supported
command line interface; idsadmin is now fully supported to assist customers interested
in automated provisioning of large number of agents.
