Is the same sensor to analyze the multiple taps? You may define multiple
source interfaces or VLANs in the same monitoring session.

monitor session 1 source interface fa0/1,fa0/2,fa03

I've been using a Cisco 2950 for single tap I have setup and it has<br>
worked fine to date.<br>
<br>
!<br>
interface FastEthernet0/1<br>
&nbsp;switchport access vlan 100<br>
&nbsp;duplex full<br>
!<br>
interface FastEthernet0/2<br>
&nbsp;switchport access vlan 100<br>
&nbsp;duplex full<br>
!<br>
!<br>
monitor session 1 source interface Fa0/1<br>
monitor session 1 destination interface Fa0/3<br>
<br>
Port one is the internet source, port two is to my routing device and<br>
three is to my sensor.<br>
<br>
I would like to setup some more taps without having to run more<br>
switches. An alternative is to purchase a tap still (around $300) or<br>
making one from scratch<br>
(<a href="http://www.altsec.info/passive-network-tap.html" target="_blank">http://www.altsec.info/passive-network-tap.html</a>) but I would prefer<br>
not to have to deal with bonding interfaces. I was considering another<br>
2950 switch (still cost around $250 used) but I figure there has got<br>
to be a better solution? A port aggregator seems to be out of the<br>
question since they seem to run around $1000...<br>
<br>
Any recommendations? Thanks.<br>
