Cisco Systems WSC2960X24PDL Remote SPAN, Example of Local SPAN Configuration on a Single Device

Configuring SPAN and RSPAN

SPAN and RSPAN

All traffic on port 5 (the source port) is mirrored to port 10 (the destination port). A network analyzer on port 10 receives all network traffic from port 5 without being physically attached to port 5.
