Command History
Modification Release
This command was introduced. Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1
Usage Guidelines
The span-session-number and the session type (configured by the erspan-source keyword) cannot be changed
once configured. Use the no form of this command to remove the session and then re-create the session with
a new session ID or a new session type.
The ERSPAN source session destination IP address, which must be configured on an interface on the destination
switch, is the source of traffic that an ERSPAN destination session sends to the destination ports. You can
configure the same address in both the source and destination sessions with the
ip address command in
ERSPAN monitor destination session configuration mode.
The ERSPAN ID differentiates the ERSPAN traffic arriving at the same destination IP address from different
ERSPAN source sessions.
The maximum local ERSPAN source session limit is 8.
Examples The following example shows how to configure an ERSPAN source session number:
Switch(config)# monitor session 55 type erspan-source
Switch(config-mon-erspan-src)#
