well I think if u don't wana mirror a port on the switch then u have only one obtion regardless if using a hub a good idea or not...! -----Original Message----- From: Anthony Scott [mailto:ascott () triadfoodsgroup com] Sent: Tuesday, 7 January 2003 8:58 AM To: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: [Snort-users] To hub or not to hub Hi. I am going to initially deploy one Snort box on our network. I want to place it right after our firewall to detect anything getting through. We have an all switched environment and I do not want to do any spanning (at least initially). I read two documents on Snort's web site, one said a hub was fine, one said a hub was a bad idea. I like the idea because it would be easy to plug and unplug the snort box without disrupting traffic. I would also like to use the box for a sniffer, ala Ethereal. Thoughts, feelings, ideas?
