GEN:SID 1:480
Message ICMP PING speedera
Summary Benevolent ping used by SpeedEra.net to find closest cache for you.
Impact Minimal to none, usually not an attack.
Detailed Information After visiting certain speedera.net sites, you will recieve several pings
to your host.  These pings are sent so that speedera can find the
closest cache to your computer.  This rule was added so that Snort could
distinguish the usually benevolent speerera pings from normal, possibly
malevolent pings.
Affected Systems  
Attack Scenarios This is not really an attack.  However an attacker could disguise their
pings as speedera pings, but this is unlikely.
Ease of Attack  
Corrective Action None required, unless none of your users have ever visited a site run by
speedera.
