Re: Newbie question -- Can Snort be installed in a routed mode instead of bridged mode?

I think you can achieve a routed-like behavior using daq nfq. For example, check the following document on Snort's 
documentation website:

Hello all:

Have been reading up on how to install Snort, and I have come across two modes:  Bridged and SPAN.  Bridged mode would 
be preferable, but our network is configured with layer 2 VLAN'ing, and an Etherchannel connecting switches to the 
firewall.  So I do not see how I could physically connect Snort in Bridged mode, since there is not just one connection 
from switch to the firewall (where I could physically connect a Snort box inbetween).  Was wondering if Snort supports 
a Routed mode, where the incoming interface is configured on one network subnet, and the outgoing interface is 
configured on a different network subnet?  If so, could you please direct me to supporting documentation re how to 
accomplish this?  My goal is to have Snort inspect traffic from one internal network destined to another internal 
network.

Thank you.
