RE: [Xen-users] Snort monitoring of Xen guests
Well, I'm not familiar with SNORT, but you can tcpdump on a bridge interface,
so I don't know why snort wouldn't work. This should allow you to pick up all
traffic that goes across the bridge.

That will only catch traffic that goes via peth. Anything from DomU to
DomU will be missed. That is probably acceptable though if you are only
interested in traffic from external to DomU.
I don't think there is an option in the Linux bridge code to have a
'mirror' port that sees everything, unless maybe you can run snort on
the xenbrX interface itself?
