Reserved L2 VLAN
MAC address learning in the reserved VLAN is automatically disabled.
There is no restriction on the VLAN IDs used for the reserved remote monitoring VLAN. Valid VLAN IDs are from 2 to 4093. The default
VLAN ID is not supported.
In monitored trac, if the device has a L3 VLAN congured, packets that have the same destination MAC address as an intermediate
or destination device in the path the reserved VLAN uses to transport the mirrored trac are dropped by the device that receives the
trac .
Source session
Congure physical ports and port-channels as sources in remote port monitoring and use them in the same source session. You can use
both L2, congured with the switchport command, and L3 ports as source ports. Optionally, congure one or more source VLANs
to congure the VLAN trac to be monitored on source ports.
Use the default VLAN and native VLANs as a source VLAN.
You cannot congure the dedicated VLAN used to transport mirrored trac as a source VLAN.
Restrictions
When you use a source VLAN, enable ow-based monitoring using the flow-based enable command.
In a source VLAN, only received (rx) trac is monitored.
In S5148F-ON, only received (rx) trac is monitored.
You cannot congure a source port-channel or source VLAN in a source session if the port-channel or VLAN has a member port
congured as a destination port in a remote port monitoring session.
You cannot use a destination port for remote port monitoring as a source port, including the session the port functions as the
destination port.
The reserved VLAN used to transport mirrored trac must be a L2 VLAN.; L3 VLANs are not supported.
Congure remote port monitoring
Remote port monitoring requires a source interface, monitored ports on dierent source network devices, and a reserved tagged VLAN for
transporting mirrored trac congured on the source, intermediate, and destination devices.
