possible to use a second NIC and have two pcaps running and the IDS
reassembling the data itself. Or you can have two NICs set up as a
bonded/joined interface where the OS does the reassembling and a single
instance of pcap and IDS runs over the traffic.

The third solution is to configure two interfaces in a Bridge
configuration and sniff on one of the interfaces.

(This is close to the bonded interface except that the bonded interface
appears as a single interface.)
