Are you devices (SUN Box and Router) connected to a switch...
If they are you will not see all traffic except for that
between the SUN Box and the Cisco.... What you then need to do
is on your switch, define one port as a monitoring port and connect
the SUN Box to it... that way it will see all traffic on the switch!!


Also generate your own traffic while running snoop eg ping your
router from the SUN Box....

Hope that helps..
