Having a very accurate and clear idea of what is happening on each layer of the network is important in IDS also because once you get all the alarms from the system, you would usually want to normalize and analyze the alarms to be able to take correct action against the attacks. That is when you need to know which layer of the network is this attack related to and how it is influencing that specific layer.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
