You need to add the keyword "vlan" to your bpf then.

So,  `/usr/local/snort2.6/bin/snort -v -i eth1 vlan and net 10.0.0.0/8`

You'll also need to enable the VLAN option in your sensor_agent.conf

Hello all,

I'm having an issue attempting to get the log_packets.sh script from
squil
capturing traffic with 2.6.  Essentially whats happening is if I use a
BPF
filter to capture traffic, but whether I use the log_packets.sh script
or
fire off snort manually using the syntax below I see no traffic at all
either logging to file or printing to screen:


/usr/local/snort2.6/bin/snort -v -i eth1 net 10.0.0.0/8

While:

/usr/local/snort2.6/bin/snort -v -I eth1

Rifles through tons of traffic.

Is BPF filters broken?
