SPAN Session

[vsraghav]

Hello All,

Would like to take your suggestion.

At present we are having a 4900 series switch where we are running one monitor session.Additionaly we are in need of capturing VLAN traffic and set the destination to 2 * GE ports , both are in the same switch.

Due to the limitation of two monitor sessions per switch , we thought of putting the destination ports as port channel but it looks like it is not supported.

Is there any other way I can achieve it.

Please suggest.

Hello,

Unfortunately this platform is limited to one destination port per session:

No workaround on that switch sorry.

You could try to use RSPAN and send the traffic over to another switch which allows more than one destination port.

Cheers,

Fabienne
