THE COMMANDS BELOW ARE LIKE A TIME LINE OF HOW I WENT ABOUT SETTING UP THE INTERFACE. I just never knew it was there because it never showed up under a normal ifconfig Any way, I was able to get the interface up and running once I located it. ( I think that's why those commands are there) lol. I also added the above commands to /etc/rc.local so that the interface will stay up. To temporarily get it up, but I wanted the interface to come back after a reboot or whatever. After setting up the interface in /etc/network/interfaces with the proper commands to get the interface setup as "promiscuous", I am able to use wireshark to get information from my SPAN port. There is my interface that needs to be configured that was setup and assigned to my VM environment as promiscuous by my Windows system admin. BUT if I do and "ifconfig -a" I see an unassigned port."eth1". So after doing a "ifconfig" I only see "ETH0" and "lo". Get back to my desk after thinking about it and find out that the problem is normally me. COOL.I make these posts after a meeting and have become frustrated.
