Spanning ports from a Nexus 7K VPC pair to the same destination port

Robert Sutton · ‎05-29-2014

We have a Nexus 7K pair running VPC to our access switches. I need to do some packet captures and want to capture all the traffic that is split across 2 links from the access switch to N7K-A and N7K-B with a fluke sniffer. I used erspan to send the port-channel traffic from N7K-A to a destination port on N7K-B. I'm now running into the problem of how to get the same local port-channel for N7K-B to the same local destination port. This may not be possible, but I am hopeful there is a solution I'm overlooking.

Thanks,

Rob

Hello Rob;

Sounds like you are having the same problems that I am experiencing. I am wondering if I can contact you directly and share information on the 5760 connecting to Nexus 7K. An Email address can start our direct communication

Thanks;

Juan
