Snort Inline Rule Application Order

The current rule application order is: 

	->activation->dynamic->drop->sdrop->reject->alert->pass->log
This will ensure that a drop rule has precedence over an alert or log rule. You can use the -o flag to change the rule application order to: 
	->activation->dynamic->pass->drop->sdrop->reject->alert->log
