I just installed snort ( or at least it is in process)  and it is asking me about  the address range of the network. So I ran ifconfig and see that it is on the 10 network. I know  I could put any numbers in there but I want to understand.... I'm thinking I will put 10.0.0.2/8. Will that work? Why will it or not work.
