you will need to set the port the snort machine is plugged into into a
monitor port
en
conf t
int f0/#  (#=port #)
switchport monitor 1-24 (or you can give it a vlan # )
^z
wr me


this will cause all traffic from the defince ports, or vlan to be mirrored
to that port..thus letting the snort box see all traffic
if ya get in trouble do a  '?'

Subject: [Snort-users] Cisco Switch Question


I just set up an NT monitoring station at home on my small network and I
have it plugged into a Linksys 10/100 Switch. At work I have both a
Mandrake
8.0 system and an NT box with Snort 1.8, these are both plugged into a
Cisco
2912 on my desk. I am not getting any alerts from the two units at work.
What do I need to do differently? I just want them to monitor the subnet
they are on now for testing. Eventually (after a learn a bit more!) I am
going to be setting up a unit to monitor a DMZ and a web site. Thanks for
any pointers.....
