Hey all:


OBSD3.7

SNORT2.3.3



I have a machine with 4 nics running 4 instances of snort:





/usr/local/bin/snort -u sguil -g sguil -l /nsm/em0 -c
/etc/snort/em0.snort.conf -U -A none -m 122 -i em0 -D



/usr/local/bin/snort -u sguil -g sguil -l /nsm/em1 -c
/etc/snort/em1.snort.conf -U -A none -m 122 -i em1 -D



/usr/local/bin/snort -u sguil -g sguil -l /nsm/em2 -c
/etc/snort/em2.snort.conf -U -A none -m 122 -i em2 -D



/usr/local/bin/snort -u sguil -g sguil -l /nsm/em3 -c
/etc/snort/em3.snort.conf -U -A none -m 122 -i em3 -D





One of the 4 nics has an ip address, the others do not.

When I start up the 4 instances of snort, the nic (em0) with the ip
address shows up in promiscuous mode, the others do not.



# ifconfig -a

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33224

        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000

        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128

        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x8

        status: active

pflog0: flags=0<> mtu 33224

pfsync0: flags=0<> mtu 2020

enc0: flags=0<> mtu 1536

How do I get the other 3 ip-less nics to run in promiscuous mode in
OBSD?



Any help would be appreciated.
