I think you need to setup your VLAN interface within the OS so you can
monitor that VLAN. I've ran into this before and just monitoring the raw
physical device actually won't let you see the VLAN tagged packets IIRC.
Once you add the VLAN interface of say eth0.15 (if you wanted to monitor
VLAN #15) you can then also bond that interface along with whatever
other interfaces you want to monitor and point Snort to bond0. That
should get you where you need to go, even if it is a big of a kludge.
