Chapter 30 Configuring SPAN and RSPAN

Configuring SPAN and RSPAN

 

Command

Purpose

Step 5

 

 

monitor session session_number

Specify the SPAN session and the destination port (monitoring port).

 

destination {interface interface-id[, -]

For session_number, specify the session number entered in Step 3.

 

[encapsulation replicate]}

 

For interface-id, specify the destination port. The destination interface

 

 

 

 

must be a physical port; it cannot be an EtherChannel, and it cannot

 

 

be a VLAN.

 

 

(Optional) [, -] Specify a series or range of interfaces. Enter a space

 

 

before and after the comma; enter a space before and after the hyphen.

 

 

(Optional) Enter encapsulation replicate to specify that the

 

 

destination interface replicates the source interface encapsulation

 

 

method. If not selected, the default is to send packets in native form

 

 

(untagged).

Step 6

 

 

end

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 7

 

 

show monitor [session session_number]

Verify the configuration.

 

show running-config

 

Step 8

 

 

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save the configuration in the configuration file.

 

 

 

To monitor all VLANs on the trunk port, use the no monitor session session_number filter global configuration command.

This example shows how to remove any existing configuration on SPAN session 2, configure SPAN session 2 to monitor traffic received on Gigabit Ethernet trunk port 2, and send traffic for only VLANs 1 through 5 and VLAN 9 to destination Gigabit Ethernet port 1.

Switch(config)# no monitor session 2

Switch(config)# monitor session 2 source interface gigabitethernet1/0/2 rx

Switch(config)# monitor session 2 filter vlan 1 - 5 , 9

Switch(config)# monitor session 2 destination interface gigabitethernet1/0/1

Switch(config)# end

RSPAN Configuration Guidelines

Follow these guidelines when configuring RSPAN:

All the items in the “SPAN Configuration Guidelines” section on page 30-11apply to RSPAN.

As RSPAN VLANs have special properties, you should reserve a few VLANs across your network for use as RSPAN VLANs; do not assign access ports to these VLANs.
