[Snort-users] threshold and suppress ??

re

I'm setting snort IDS for observing activity of a larger network ( of
size /19) and I like to suppress some events from trusted hosts that
snort reports as alerts. So I'm trying to suppress all alerts for some
trusted hosts that are doing GRE tunneling, since snort reports almost
every possible alert between too trusted hosts on GRE layer.

In threshold.conf I've putted something like this

suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 0, track by_dst, ip x.x.x.y/32

but snort still generates alerts for this trusted host. So can I apply
suppress rule that suppress all events from specified IP ?

regards,
Andraz
