The following example shows an ERPM configuration .
Dell(conf)#monitor session 0 type erpm
Dell(conf-mon-sess-0)#source tengigabitethernet 1/9 direction rx
Dell(conf-mon-sess-0)#source port-channel 1 direction tx
Dell(conf-mon-sess-0)#erpm source-ip 1.1.1.1 dest-ip 7.1.1.2
Dell(conf-mon-sess-0)#no disable
Dell(conf)#monitor session 1 type erpm
Dell(conf-mon-sess-1)#source vlan 11 direction rx
Dell(conf-mon-sess-1)#erpm source-ip 5.1.1.1 dest-ip 3.1.1.2
Dell(conf-mon-sess-1)#flow-based enable
Dell(conf-mon-sess-1)#no disable
Dell# show monitor session 
SessID Source Destination Dir Mode Source IP Dest IP
 ------ ------ ----------- --- ---- --------- --------

0 Po 1 remote-ip tx Port 1.1.1.1 7.1.1.2 
1 Vl 11 remote-ip rx Flow 5.1.1.1 3.1.1.2
The next example shows the configuration of an ERPM session in which VLAN 11 is monitored as the source interface and a 
MAC ACL filters the monitored ingress traffic.
Dell(conf)#mac access-list standard flow
Dell(config-std-macl)#seq 5 permit 00:00:0a:00:00:0b count monitor
