Re: How to run multiple instances of snort inline and daq and multiple interfaces (firewall)

I realize it's been only 24 hrs. since I posted this, but perhaps I can
clarify what I am asking. I have found bits and pieces of how tos for
multiple instances of snort in inline mode for multiple interfaces.
However, they mention bridging the interfaces such that:
eth0 <--> eth1
eth2 <--> eth3
etc.

I need to know if the  multiple interfaces can all be bridged to the WAN
interface such that:
 WAN eth0 <---inline snort 1 -->LAN eth1

WAN eth0 <---inline snort 2 -->LAN eth2

etc.

Can it be done?

I am trying to learn some of the ins and outs of snort. Is there a
tutorial somewhere that outlines how to setup snort in inline mode using
daq on a Linux netfilter firewall. It is a typical firewall setup with
interfaces of, for example:

eth0 -> WAN interface with public IP address
eth1 -> 1st protected LAN interface with unique subnet
eth2 -> 2nd protected LAN interface with unique subnet
etc....

I would need multiple instances of snort with

instance1 eth0 <---> eth1 (bidirectional)
instance2 eth0 <---> eth2        "
etc.

Thank you!
