Chapter 51 Configuring SPAN and RSPAN
Configuration Example
This example shows how to configure a session to accept only unicast packets in the ingress direction:
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 filter address-type unicast rx
Configuration Example
The following is an example of SPAN configuration using some of the SPAN enhancements.
In this example, you configure a session to sniff unicast traffic arriving on interface Gi1/1. The traff ic is
mirrored out of interface Gi1/2 with ISL encapsulation. Ingress traffic is permitted.
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 source interface gi1/1 rx
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 destination interface gi1/2 encapsulation isl ingress
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 filter address-type unicast rx
Switch(config)# exit
Switch# show monitor
Session 1
---------
Type : Local Session
Source Ports :
RX Only : Gi1/1
Destination Ports : Gi1/2

RSPAN Configuration Guidelines
Follow these guidelines when configuring RSPAN:
Note Since 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.
