Suggest starting with double checking your configuration.  Did you
bridge the interfaces?

I have a problem with IPS mode.

I wonder how afpacket can drop/block traffic.

1.I saw daq-1.1.1/xxx/daq_afpacket.c : daq_acquire() use raw socket and
kernel rx_ring to receive ethernet data.
2. on each packet snort callback is called and if verdict after callback is
PASS, then daq use sento() to send packet on interface ; else: if verdict is
DROP - then nothing is sendig.
3.I comment sendto call in daq so any traffic will not be sent, but ICMP
pings for example go through snort as if snort was disabled.

So - I can not see how dropping can be done by daq: using only raw sockets i
think is not enough..?
