[Snort-users] using a tap

hi there,
we're thinking about buying a tap too, but there are some questions that I
need to be answered before:

1. Taps use to channels to get the traffic to the monitoring device (one for
RX and one for TX). How do I "bond" these channels
together, if I do need to do that?

2. It is a security violation when using a Sensor connected to the Tap and
(!) to the internal net (with IP), but it is needed anyway for updating
rules and
other issues. Is it anyway reliable?

Maybe the questions seem to be stupid, anyway they need to be answered for
me :-/

Regards,

Jens
