It shows in the system log as going into promiscuous mode. and I called Linksys to verify that this is a hub and not a switch. and i do not need to set an IP for the sensor correct? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank McPherson" <fhmiv () mac com> To: "Larry E.

I have my cable modem hooked into a Linksys 5 port hub and I also have a snort sensor configured on the hub to catch all traffic coming to my network. from the 5 port hub it connects into a Linksys router which is where my server is located. my question is why can i catch traffic on my internal snort sensor connected to the Linksys router, but all I can see are ARP requests on the external snort sensor which is connected to the hub? anyone have any ideas?
