Re: how to configure snort with vlan

My VLAN experience is limited on GNU/Linux, but give this a try.  Use
this to test and make sure you are getting the packets you want.
(This assumes your interface is eth0 and you want to only see vlan 2)

snort -dev -i eth0 vlan 2

The "vlan 2" is a libpcap filter that should allow you to only see the
802.1q tagged messages for VLAN 2.

Try running your three instances of snort using the three VLANs you
are trunking on that port. Let me know if you have any luck.  I am
curious.

Hi, my noc have mirrored 3 vlan on the same mirror port of the switch,
and so I have all the traffic mirrored on the same port.

I would like to run different istance of snort for each vlan coming from
the same ethernet card, what I need and how can I do? In particular how
do I say snort to listen on ethX on vlan id Y?


Thanks very much
