I've been wanting to get a Bro IDS installed for a long time now - and for several reasons:

It looks fun!

My customers have expressed interest

It will be part of my upcoming ILTACON session.

So this weekend I started getting the hardware portion ready, which includes:

Ubiquiti Edge Router X (~$99)

TP-Link TL-SG105E (~$35)

CanaKit Raspberry Pi 3 Complete Starter Kit (~$70)

If you need additional information such as screenshots/configs etc to get the VLANs passing properly from the Edge Router X to TP-LINK switch, let me know. Otherwise for now I'm just focusing on crafting content for part 2, where we'll dive into actually turning the Pi into a Bro sensor using Sweet Security.
