Options values listed in square brackets indicate that if that particular option is not

selected, the value mentioned in the square bracket will be used by default. For exam 

ple, the following three lines show that if the  with prefix option is not used on the

command line for the configure script, /usr/local value will be used as PREFIX

by default. Note that PREFIX is the directory under which Snort files are installed

when you use the  make install  command.
