Description

== Sid: 2 ==
alert tcp-pkt any any -> any any (content:"abc"; depth:3; sid:2; rev:1;)
    Rule matches on packets.
    Rule contains 1 content options, 0 http content options, 0 pcre options, and 0 pcre options with http modifiers.
    Warning: TCP rule without a flow or flags option.
             -Consider adding flow or flags to improve performance of this rule.
    Warning: Rule has depth/offset with raw content keywords.  Please note the offset/depth will be checked against both packet payloads and stream.  If you meant to have the offset/depth checked against just the payload, you can update the signature as "alert tcp-pkt..." 

Sig is not inspecting stream, so warning is not relevant.
