Chapter 51 Configuring SPAN and RSPAN
Configuring RSPAN
This example shows how to clear any existing RSPAN configuration for session 1, configure RSPAN
session 1 to monitor multiple source interfaces, and configure the destination RSPAN VLAN.
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# no monitor session 1
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 source interface fastEthernet3/10 tx
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 source interface fastEthernet3/2 rx
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 source interface fastEthernet3/3 rx
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 source interface port-channel 102 rx
Switch(config)# monitor session 1 destination remote vlan 901
Switch(config)# end
Step 6 Switch(config)# [no] monitor session
{session_number} {source {interface
interface_list | {vlan vlan_IDs | cpu
[queue queue_ids]} [rx | tx | both]
Specifies the RSPAN session and the source port (monitored port).
For session_number, specifies the session number identified with this
RSPAN session (1 through 6).
For interface-list, specifies the source port to monitor. Valid
interfaces include physical interfaces and port-channel logical
interfaces (port-channel port-channel-number).
For vlan-IDs, specifies the source VLAN or VLANs to monitor.
Valid VLANs are in the range from 1 to 4094.
For queue_ids, specifies either a set of CPU queue numerical
identifiers from 1 to 32, or a named queue.
(Optional) [, | -] Specifies a series or range of interfaces. Enter a
space after the comma; enter a space before and after the hyphen.
(Optional) Specifies the direction of traffic to monitor. If you do not
specify a traffic direction, the source interface sends both transmitted
(Tx) and received (Rx) traffic. Only received traffic can be monitored
on additional source ports.
Rx—Monitor received traffic.
Tx—Monitor transmitted traffic.
both—Monitor both received and transmitted traffic
(bidirectional).
Step 7 Switch(config)# monitor session
session_number destination remote vlan
vlan-ID
Specifies the RSPAN session and the destination remote VLAN.
For session_number, specifies the session number identified with this
RSPAN session (1 through 6).
For vlan-ID, specifies the RSPAN VLAN to carry the monitored
traffic to the destination port.
Step 8 Switch(config)# end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 9 Switch# show monitor [session
session_number]Verifies your entries.
Step 10 Switch# copy running-config
startup-config (Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
