I would think you'd be better off deploying the NIDS at either end instead, adjacent to one of the routers. Anything passing in between them (and not generated by one of them, obviously) would have to pass by that position anyways, would it not?

If we need to deploy a NIDS running on a linux-box having a 10/100/1000 ethernet card, would an optical-tap with a protocol converter suffice? With a serial-line protocol would any synchronization at the protocol converter be necessary?
