I'm left a bit confused over how Snort handles assigning sensor IDs and how
I might be able to control it. For example, I just changed how Snort runs,
and in doing so, a new sensor ID is created and dumps the data in there,
which makes querying MySql from a front end annoying.

Anyone know how to keep Snort to just a single sensor ID regardless of any
changes I might make to the startup options? Or is there something inherent
that would make that a really bad idea?

On the same note, is it possible to dump data from multiple interfaces into
a single "sensor"? I don't really care which sensor picked up the data as I
can look at source/destination anyway.
