# Config file for /etc/init.d/suricata* # Where config files are stored. Default: # SURICATA_DIR="/etc/suricata" # Pass options to each suricata service. # You can launch more than one service at the same time with different options. # This can be useful in a multi-queue gateway, for example. # You can expand on the Suricata inline example found at: # https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/projects/suricata/wiki/Setting_up_IPSinline_for_Linux # Instead of configuring iptables to send traffic to just one queue, you can configure it to "load balance" # on several queues. You can then have a Suricata instance processing traffic for each queue. # This should help improve performance on the gateway/firewall. # Suppose you configured iptables to use queues 0 and 1. You can now do the following: # ln -s /etc/init.d/suricata /etc/init.d/suricata.q0 # ln -s /etc/init.d/suricata /etc/init.d/suricata.q1 # cp /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml /etc/suricata/suricata-q0.yaml # cp /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml /etc/suricata/suricata-q1.yaml # mkdir /var/log/suricata/q{0,1} # Edit both suricata-q{0,1}.yaml files and set values accordingly (eg. set the suricata.log file path to # a dedicated dir in the section "logging:outputs:-file"). # You can then define the following options here: # SURICATA_OPTS[q0]="-q 0 -l /var/log/suricata/q0" # SURICATA_OPTS[q1]="-q 1 -l /var/log/suricata/q1" # If you want to use ${SURICATA_DIR}/suricata.yaml and start the service with /etc/init.d/suricata # then you can set: SURICATA_OPTIONS="--af-packet"
