hi Tim, thanks for the response - but reading the description that sounds like the firewall itself still has to be inline, which i'm trying to avoid here.
I guess what does the rest of the config have to look like for it to function correctly off a span port? ie there wouldn't be any routing or IP interfaces involved.
