Promiscuous port help?

[jlawrencedhe]

Hello,

We are trying to figure out how to setup a port on our Cat4006 switch to be in promiscuous mode. We already have multiple VLAN's and I have read the details on setting up PVLAN's I am just not sure if this would affect our existing port configuration. We want to setup the one port to add a SNORT box and be able to capture all traffic flowing through the 4006 and VLAN's. Does anyone have some insight?

Thanks,

Jeremey

The following is the command prompt for configuring promiscuous ports, Switch(config-if)# switchport mode {access |private vlan host | private vlan promiscuous}
