Hello HF'ers,
Can't seem to find hardware requirements for Snort on the website. I am trying to built a Snort box for a home network. Approx 6 network devices and 3 users. I was planning on using this:
I'm not 100% on the memory as I couldn't find DDR3 in 800MHZ on newegg
What you guy think about this? I wanted to get a decent hardware set in case my network grows in the future.
Also, any suggestions on what OS to install SNORT on? This is my first attempt at a SNORT install.
Thanks all.
