As much as I love Mikrotik they do not have Snort. It is a very valuable tool.
That said, you can do like i do and run Snort on a dedicated ethernet port on
one of your existing servers and mirror everything to it. That combined with
MT's firewall abilities is great. I have been working on dynamic firewall rules
in MT from snort and some log monitors but have not done much. The MT API is
wonderful, if I can just wrap my brain around it.
