I have a sensor setup that currently is running as a read-only, and the tap point is split into upstream on one 
interface and downstream packets on another interface. My question is how can I set this up so that snort can merge 
the packets from just these two interfaces so snort can see the whole picture on what’s happening on the tap? (FWIW I 
also can't listen on all interfaces because I don’t want to look at loopback data or the other interfaces on the 
computer).



Manual has this:

…in a nutshell:

snort --daq afpacket -i eth0:eth1
