All Alerts

info

Summary of All Alerts is the single consolidated listing of every alert Trisul has raised across threshold crossing, flow tracker, IDS/Suricata, malware and blacklist, DDoS, and every other alert class in one place. Use it when you need the complete picture instead of checking each alert type separately.

What Can You Do With All Alerts?

  • See every alert Trisul has raised in one place, regardless of which detection engine or alert class generated it.
  • Group results by Source IP, Destination IP, Signature, or Description to spot patterns — a handful of IPs responsible for most of the noise, or one signature firing far more than the rest.
  • Drill into an individual alert for more context, or download the underlying packet capture for offline analysis.
  • Export the current result set for reporting or further investigation outside Trisul.

Viewing the Alert Listing

Navigation

👉 Go to Security → All Alerts

note

The page itself is titled External IDS Listing once you're on it. That's expected, it's the same view, just labeled from the detection-engine side rather than the menu side.

The top of the page shows the active time window, for example, 18 Hrs:26 Mins Starting 2026-09-21 00:00:00 +0530 so you always know exactly how far back the listing reaches before reading the results.

Show Search Form

Click + Show Search Form to open the search criteria panel and narrow the listing down — by IP, signature, time range, or other available fields — before Trisul returns results.

Grouped By Options

Directly below the search bar, Trisul automatically groups the current result set:

GroupShows
Source IPThe IPs generating the most alerts, with a count next to each
Destination IPThe IPs being targeted most often, with a count next to each
SignaturesThe Suricata/IDS signature names that fired, with a count next to each
DescriptionThe human-readable description tied to each signature, with a count next to each
tip

Grouped By is usually the fastest way to triage a busy alert window — a handful of source IPs or signatures dominating the counts is often the real story, not the individual alerts underneath them.

Showing Recent 1000 Alerts

Below the Grouped By panel, individual alerts are listed in a table:

ColumnDescription
IDTrisul's internal alert identifier
PriorityThe alert's priority, shown with an action tag (for example, allowed)
IP / PortSource IP and port
IP / PortDestination IP and port
Scan CheckResult of an associated scan check, where applicable
TypeThe numeric signature ID that fired
DescriptionThe human-readable signature description
Timestamp ISTWhen the alert fired
ProbeWhich probe captured the traffic that triggered the alert

Working With Results

Across the top of the table:

  • Toggle Labels — switch between raw values and resolved/labeled names where available.
  • Download — export the current result set.
  • Download PCAP — pull the packet capture behind the listed alerts for offline analysis.
  • Check Scan — re-runs the scan check against the currently listed alerts.

Drilldown Options

Each row has its own action menu (⋮ ▾) for drilling into that specific alert, plus a quick-action icon for suppressing it from future listings.

warning

Downloading PCAP for a large result set can produce a very large file — narrow the search criteria first if you only need packets for a specific IP, signature, or time range.
