Hello Pavel

I refer to the mail from 'leon' which refers to the following link[1]
which describes how you can sniff in a switched environment.

Actually, the techniques described in there are not The Right Way[tm] to
sniff out your switched environment, if you have access to your switch
configuration.

If you read the comments you will see that there is a word about a
"mirrored port" which makes sense to me, so you can sniff all the
traffic going through a switch (or maybe even spanned switches) by a box
connected to this port. Even with Snort.
