I don't know how to do this in OS X.

I've just discovered that when I start Snort with -i en1 it indeed takes down 
my wifi association.  But then I went into Network Manager and set up the 
connexion again, and it came up no problem, presumably with Snort listening 
since it's still running.  I don't know why starting Snort required what seems 
to be a new network domain, and I don't know whether it will survive reboots, 
but experimenting.

BTW, I was looking for the Spade plugin, and can't find it anywhere.  Has it 
disappeared?
