RE: Cisco Catalyst - SNORT

I recently asked this question of Cisco in reference to vlan mirroring to a
gig fiber port on a 6509 and they said there should be no performance
degredation as it's all done "in hardware."

hello jose

you'll have to configure the switch port where you are
plugging the snort device as a "span" port...

pls take a look at the following link to see how you
can configure it on a 6000 series catalyst switch...

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat6000/12_1e/swconfig/s
pan.htm

also in my experience, if you configure a switch port
as span then you can not pass any management traffic
through that port so you will have to add another
network card and plug it to another switch port if you
want to manage this device remotely...

saludos

javier

Hi All,
I'm probing Snort in our network. Snort was
installed and its run correctly.
Our problem is that snort only listen packet unicast
to snort IP or any
broadcast packet of VLAN where its was connected. 
Questions is:

In a Cisco Catalyst 8540 or Calalyst 6509, which is
configuration port for
SNORT listen all packet of the VLAN?

Regards and thanks,
