IDS/IPS system with Foundry sFlow

Hello,

We have got a network with an embedded support for sFlow technology.
We also want to have a good IDS/IPS system. Does anyone know a good
setup with our foundry?

We noticed that Foundry got their own application called "IronView
Network Manager", it is able to operate with snort. Does anyone know
of this is a good solution? Or should we use an sFlow converter (e.g.
InMon sFlow toolkit) that can work with snort?

What are the other possibilities for IDS/IPS besides snort. It has to
operate with the sFlow technology.

Kind regards,

Babel Timo
