[tor-relays] Intrusion Prevention System Software - Snort or Suricata or no IPS at all

[Tristan]

I think I'm doing this wrong. I was trying to access the ruleset links from
this page: https://suricata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/rules/intro.html

But I think I'm actually supposed to get the rulesets from somewhere else:
https://suricata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/oinkmaster.html

I can access Suricata, I'm just trying to figure out how all this works
before I actually start to mess around with it on a server.
