Hi Folks ;
  I am trying to practise some IDS , I have an IDS 4.1 .
   
  my setup is simple PC --------sw1------------(sniff) IDS-(c&c)-------sw1-----------IEV
   
  I am using separate vlan for the PC and Sniff port than the C&C port and IEV
   
  the IEV can ping the cc port , I can also login via IDM to the sensor
   
  my configuration on the switch is as follows
   
  monitor session 1 source vlan 11 rx
monitor session 1 destination interface Fa0/12
   
  my first question here is that ..how can i make sure that the monitoring is actually working and sends traffic to the sniff port of the IDS ???
   
  I have access via IDM as well as keyboard and monitor .
   
  can someone help that so i can post my other questions ?:)
