Albert,
Why against the use of an external device, a la network taps?
(www.netoptics.com). Place a Port Aggregator in front of your switch and
and you grab all traffic that will ingress and egress the network.

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

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
