I'm using snort_inline with FreeBSD 7.0, IPFW, and IF_BRIDGE. Massive  
traffic
running through it and no performance issues. Dropping sessions is  
effortless
but there are more complex ways to filter and pass which sounds like  
what
you would want to do. I've not experimented with that. There isn't a  
lot of
documentation on set up and what there is states that it doesn't work.  
That's
out of date because it does, quite well really. The docs out there for  
snort_inline
and non-bridged configurations are still useful. I don't have a link  
but found
them with googling.
