I bet Michael is wanting to use it as a bridge of mulitple ports. So you
could use lower-level tech (eg brctl for Linux) to create a bridge of
eth1+eth2 as "br0", and then use snort to "inline" eth0 and br0

Hi all,

    is it possible to use snort inline using afpacket for daq using three
interfaces, like this:

    "snort -i eth0:eth1:eth2"

    or is only possible to use two nics??

Thanks.

How would inline work with three interfaces?  It's not doing any
switching/bridging, so I'm not sure what your expected behavior would
be.  To answer the question: you can only use two.


many thanks Jason. Use bridging for two interfaces, it is the best 
option ...
