I am trying to add a monitor device to our network and in my mind it will go in between the firewall and main switch.



Internet ---- Firewall ---- New Monitor ---- Main Switch



I am going to run NtopNG on a linux box setup in a transparent bridge configuration. If my mind it should pass all traffic, but I am concerned that it will not push the vlan tagged traffic through.



  1. I have created the bride and added the interfaces

  2. Gave the bridge an IP address so I can connect remotely

  3. Put the device on a test network and its passing traffic fine, but I do not have any vlan traffic to test, other than my production environment.

Will a transparent bridge pass all traffic?



The main switch is a procurve, and the firewall/router is a ASA.

          No, it won't work that way. You will need multiple bridges, one for each vlan.
