Hi want to build a container to run Surricata and Zeek to do network analysis.

See two possible approaches.

1) using PCIe passthought to pass the 2.5 Gbps ethernet card through to a container(is that possible on a container?) That runs both Zeek and Surricata.

2) Use 2 containers with a bridge network sharing the traffic to 2 virtual ports(1 on each container) with Surricata running on one, and Zeek on the other.

Thanks D
