To quote the reference cited (which I've got to re-read more often :-/ ):

2.1.3  Config

Many configuration and command line options of Snort can be specified
in the configuration file. 

Format
config <directive>[: <value> ]

interface
Set the network interface (snort -i). Example: config interface: xl0


Or, perhaps:

config interface: eth0
