Scenario RPM Restriction Recommended Solution
is connected through the VLT device, but
not directly to the VLT device.
Mirroring Orphan Ports across VLT Devices
— In this scenario, an orphan port on the
primary VLT device is mirrored to another
orphan port on the secondary VLT device
through the ICL LAG. The port analyzer is
connected to the secondary VLT device. No restrictions apply to the RPM session.
The following example shows the
configuration on the primary VLT
device:
source orphan port
destination remote vlan
direction rx/tx/both
.The following
example shows the configuration on the
secondary VLT device:
source remote
vlan destination orphan port
.
None.
Mirroring VLT LAG across VLT Peers — In
this scenario, the VLT LAG on the primary
VLT peer is mirrored to an orphan port on
the secondary VLT peer through the ICL
LAG. The packet analyzer is connected to
the secondary VLT peer. No restrictions apply to the RPM session.
The following example shows the
configuration on the primary VLT
device:
source VLT LAG destination
remote vlan direction rx/tx/
both
.The following example shows the
configuration on the secondary VLT
device:
source remote vlan
destination orphan port .
None
Mirroring member port of ICL LAG to
Orphan Port of peer vlt device— In this
scenario, a member port of the ICL LAG or a
member port of the VLT LAG is mirrored to
an orphan port on the peer VLT device. The
packet analyzer is connected to the peer
VLT device. The bandwidth of the VLTi link is
unnecessarily used by mirrored traffic if max
rate limit value is configured in the RPM
mirror session. None.
Mirroring member port of ICL LAG to VLT
LAG — In this scenario, a member port of
the ICL LAG is mirrored to the VLT LAG on
the same VLT device. The packet analyzer is
connected to the TOR switch. No restrictions apply. The bandwidth of the
VLTi link is unnecessarily used by mirrored
traffic if max rate limit value is configured in
the RPM mirror session. If you want to mirror traffic in the TOR
locally, use local Port mirroring session
instead of RPM.
Mirroring with a VLAN as source and
destination — If the members of the source
and destination VLANs are same in a single
monitoring session. No restrictions apply. None.
Mirroring with an interface or LAG as source
and destination --- If the source and
destination interface or LAG of a monitor
session are same. No restrictions apply. None.
