Are you sure about that? My experience with RealSecure and NetRanger
and most of the other commercial IDS's is that for any sort of network
of magnitude, they require a lot of attention.

I'm not sure what you mean. The various Sensors and Squires are real time
and all of the web interfaces use real-time data. There is also the
SNMP/SMTP/SYSLOG alerting which is real time. If your talking about a GUI
that has red flashing lights and stuff like that, we're working on some
stuff that will fill your need, but right now the focus is and has been
web based correlation and reporting.
