Abstract
A system and related methods are disclosed for detecting the occurrence of an intrusion attack. A network device, such a probe, monitors traffic on a first network and converts the traffic to a format that is suitable for transmission on a second network. The converted traffic is forwarded to an intrusion detection system for further processing. Prior to transmission, the converted data may be filtered to remove data that is not useful in detecting an intrusion attack.
