What are the primary three modes in which Snort can be configured to run?
Network Intrusion Prevention System
Network Intrusion Detection System
Packet Logger
Network Anti-Virus Analyzer
Snort is a free and open source network intrusion prevention system (NIPS) and network intrusion detection system (NIDS). Snort's open source network-based intrusion detection system (NIDS) has the ability to perform real-time traffic analysis and packet logging on Internet Protocol (IP) networks. Snort performs protocol analysis, content searching and matching. EDIT: Snort can be configured as a HIPS with the help of ADS so I removed the HIPS answer. I have it setup at my home network.
