Re: snort with two interface

And without patching, you could bond the two interfaces together and
listen on the bonded interface.  The only downside of both of those
options is not knowing what NIC saw the bad traffic.. you could go of
IP of course, if that makes sense for your network design.

  Hi Leonardo,

  This is not fully right. With proper patching Snort can read from multiple
interfaces within the same instance. This is BTW, what we have done in
redBorder project

Subject: [Snort-users] snort with two interface



i have the snort in the border of a network, and how this topic shows, it
has two interface. i have put the HOME_NET equal to the ip of the both
interfaces.

the think is: in one of them i can detect attacks, but in the other i
cant.

when i start to test, i was using just one (the iterface that is
detecting).

but i need particular that the other detect too. so, what could be wrong?

my snort.conf is working fine, and i he is starting on boot sniffing both
interface.

This might be a problem with pcap?



I believe Snort can only listen on one interface at a time, so you may
want to run two separate instances of snort.



James
