[Snort-users] Which switches are recommneded

Subject: [Snort-users] Which switches are recommneded

I have an opportunity to implement a Corporate backbone with the right 
tools.

I originally was reviewing the Linksys Managed Switches, until I 
discovered that these devices do not support SPAN (Switch Port 
ANalyzer), which permits traffic to be monitored by another port (did I 
need to say this in this group, probably not!).

Anyway, are there any other switches being used that permit the Snort 
IDS to monitor traffic in the switch (without using an external device?).

TIA
