Hi, I am about to upgrade an OBSD Firewall to OBSD-5.7 and am thinking about implementing a network tap into the rebuild for an ids. The current firewall doesn't contain a network bridge so I am slightly unsure about how to achive this as the tutorials I have found expect me to have a filtering bridge. I am just using pf with rdr-to and relayd.
Could I just create a 'single' interface bridge on each leg of my firewall and add a spanport ? || |ifconfig bridge0 create| |ifconfig bridge0 add em0| #Internet line |ifconfig bridge0 addspan em2 #My 1st Spanport| nic |ifconfig bridge0 up| The firewall actually has a trunk with the multiple vlans, I don't think this will make a difference but thought it would be worth mentioning just in case. Any advice / pointers to tutorials would be appreciated. Thanks Keith
