IDS Attack Customization - More Granularity

I would like for more customization/granularity with IDS attack rules. Specifically I am requesting the ability to create custom attack rules for specific IP addresses/IP ranges. This would be especially useful for FLOOD rules.

    This item is unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into product plan.

    After discussing this requirement at some length with the submitter, we agreed that IDS policy syntax already provides the ability to tailor when different flood thresholds should be enforced. The real issue is that the Network Configuration Assistant (NCA) does not provide for that type of configuration in the IDS perspective. So we would like to consider this as a requirement on the NCA to offer more flexibility in supporting multiple interface flood rules, each with different time conditions, through the IDS perspective. Ideally, this type of flexibility would be added for rules involving other attack types, as appropriate.
