*wave to montevallo.edu* (originally from Birmingham.. ) Snort by default just strips off the vlan headers and decodes the packets as if there were no vlans. You will only run into troubles with using the CISCO-specific trunking protocols (ISL)... but having multiple VLANs won't be a problem. "Martin Jr., D. Michael" <martinm () montevallo edu> writes:
I was wondering if anyone out there has been successful in configuring Snort to monitor traffic on multiple VLANs. If so, how did you accomplish this? We are basically a "Cisco-shop" and are thinking of segmenting our residence halls (and other areas) into separate VLANs for security and virus propagation defense. However, we would like to configure our Snort box (Windows 2000) to actually be able to see and "sniff" the traffic on all of the VLANs. Any suggestions?
