Hello
I have snort 2.9.3.1 and afpacket daq installed.

*MY GOAL:*

1. create several (e.g. 2) configurations of snort using "config binding"
2. have different modes in this configuration, for exeample: conf1 will run
in tap mode and conf2 (binded) will run in inline mode.
3.only on snort process must be run to acheive this goal

*QUESTIONS: *

*1. Is it possible?* I could'nt do it, because i need to specify "-Q" flag
for inline mode which is global and have the next problems:

1.to run snort in inline i need to specify "-Q" (w/o it snort complains:
"Adapter is in Passive Mode. Hence switching policy mode to tap.")
2.but with -Q switch i have an error from conf1: "FATAL ERROR: DAQ
'passive' mode incompatible with -Q! "

PS: from manual: config daq_* options is not configuration-specific and
they are global; but config policy_mode is config-specific and may differ
in case of multi-configurations config; so this is the problem.

PPS:
Here is my config (only topic-related things):

*File /etc/conf1.conf:*
config daq_dir : /usr/lib/daq
config daq : afpacket
config daq_mode : passive
config policy_mode : tap
config interface : eth1
config binding : /etc/conf2.conf net 10.0.0.0/24
config policy_version : base-version
config policy_id : 0

*File /etc/conf2.conf:*
config policy_mode : inline
config interface : eth1:eth2
config policy_version : base-version sub-version
config policy_id : 1

*2. Another question*: in case of multiple configurations: is it necessary
to include "config policy_id" options in each configurations and is option
"config policy_version :" is necessary ? May be I only need to use "config
binding FILE net IP" ?
