Reference Guide

A VLAN can also be configured as the source to a session (all the member ports of that VLAN are
monitored).
Note
If an interface participates in some VLAN and is a LAG member, this VLAN cannot be assigned
as a source VLAN for a Monitor session. At the same time, if an interface participates in some
VLAN and this VLAN is assigned as a source VLAN for a Monitor session, the interface can be
assigned as a LAG member.
Remote port mirroring is configured by giving the RSPAN VLAN ID. At the source switch the destination
is configured as RSPAN VLAN and at the destination switch the source is configured as RSPAN VLAN.
Note
On the intermediate switch, RSPAN VLAN should be created, the ports connected towards
Source and Destination switch should have the RSPAN VLAN participation. RSPAN VLAN
egress tagging should be enabled on the interface on the intermediate switch connected
towards the Destination switch.
Default None
Format monitor session session-id source {interface {unit/slot/port
| cpu | lag } | vlan vlan-id | remote vlan vlan-id }[{rx |
tx}]
Mode Global Config
no monitor session source
This command removes the specified mirrored port from the selected port mirroring session.
Default
None
Format no monitor session session-id source {interface {unit/slot/
port | cpu | lag } | vlan | remote vlan}
Mode Global Config
monitor session destination
This command configures the probe interface for a selected monitor session. This command configures
a probe port and a monitored port for monitor session (port monitoring). Use rx to monitor only ingress
packets, or use tx to monitor only egress packets. If you do not specify an {rx | tx} option, the
destination port monitors both ingress and egress packets.
A VLAN can be configured as the source to a session (all member ports of that VLAN are monitored).
Remote port mirroring is configured by adding the RSPAN VLAN ID. At the source switch, the
destination is configured as the RSPAN VLAN and at the destination switch, the source is configured as
the RSPAN VLAN.
Note
The source and destination cannot be configured as remote on the same device.
