Thanks for your reply,

Type of switch is Cisco.

Currently 2 network port (eth0 & eth1)

eth0 - Through which i am accessing with SSH
eth1 - All the port in cisco switch are mirrored to eth1 (10.184.75.0) (One
subnet)

Snort installed on Fedora 10. Installed Snort 2.8,4 Base, barnyard2. I am
able to get alert on web console.

Can you give a little more details?

What type of switch?  Cisco switches have one way to monitor a port,
each switch is completely different in execution but the concepts are
similar.

Are all 4 networks on the same switch?

How many NICs are in your snort box? - having an individual NIC for each
network is preferred but I suppose it's not the only option.

If you're just getting started with Snort, I would definitely pick one
network and monitor that one first...get that working, get an
understanding how that works and the add the other networks.  Having
multiple NICs in a single box makes this quite a bit more complicated
and requires a good understanding of linux (assuming a linux platform)
because you'll need either sets of config files or variables in the
config files.
