Hi,

We have two routers connected by fibre running a serial-line protocol
like PPP. If we need to deploy a NIDS running on a linux-box having a
10/100/1000 ethernet card, would an optical-tap with a protocol
converter suffice?

With a serial-line protocol would any synchronization at the protocol
converter be necessary?
