Suricata (7.0.8): Reloading change to HOME_NET & BPF Filter

Please include the following information with your help request:

  • Suricata version : 7.0.8
  • Operating system and/or Linux distribution: Oracle Linux 9
  • How you installed Suricata (from source, packages, something else): Oracle Linux Yum Repository

Hello,

If I make changes to HOME_NET & BPF Filter can commands mentioned in 9.3. Rule Reloads — Suricata 7.0.8 documentation would pick up that change?

And if yes, what kind of log message\command should I check to confirm the change?

[EDIT]
Further information:

  • In our environment, we monitor multiple network interfaces along with bpf filter.
  • In certain situation, an interface can have frequent IP address change
  • That would mean we need to change HOME_NET AND bpf filter
  • Currently we achieve that by restarting suricata
  • But we want avoid it if possible
  • Is it possible suricata would consider changed bpf filter and HOME_NET through some other command other than restart?

Thanks in advance!

HOME_NET yes, bpf no.
