Configuring the Switch
3-138
3
•
Switch Role
– Specifies the role this switch performs in mirroring traffic.
-
Source
- Specifies this device as the source of remotely mirrored traffic.
-
Intermediate
- Specifies this device as an intermediate switch, transparently
passing mirrored traffic from one or more sources to one or more destinations.
-
Destination
- Specifies this device as a switch configured with a destination port
which is to receive mirrored traffic for this session.
•
Source Port
– The source port to be mirrored remotely. One or more source ports
can be assigned to the same RSPAN session, either on the same switch or on
different switches.
•
Type
– Specifies the traffic type to be mirrored remotely. (Options: Rx, Tx, Both)
•
Destination Port
– Specifies the destination port to monitor the traffic mirrored
from the source ports. Only one destination port can be configured on the same
switch per session, but a destination port can be configured on more than one
switch for the same session. Also note that a destination port can still send and
receive switched traffic, and participate in any Layer 2 protocols to which it has
been assigned.
•
Tag
– Specifies whether or not the traffic exiting the destination port to the
monitoring device carries the RSPAN VLAN tag.
•
Remote VLAN
– The VLAN to which traffic mirrored from the source port will be
flooded. The VLAN specified in this field must first be reserved for the RSPAN
application using the VLAN Static List (see page 3-177).
•
Uplink Port
– A port on any switch participating in RSPAN through which mirrored
traffic is passed on to or received from the RSPAN VLAN.
Only 802.1Q trunk or hybrid (i.e., general use) ports can be configured as an
RSPAN uplink port – access ports are not allowed. (See "Configuring VLAN
Behavior for Interfaces" on page 3-183 for information on setting the port mode.)
Only one uplink port can be configured on a source switch, but there is no limitation
on the number of unplink ports configured on an intermediate or destination switch.
Only destination and uplink ports will be assigned by the switch as members of the
RSPAN VLAN. Ports cannot be manually assigned to an RSPAN VLAN through
the VLAN Static Table or VLAN Static Membership by Port menu. Nor can GVRP
dynamically add port members to an RSPAN VLAN. Also, note that the VLAN
Current Table will not display any members for an RSPAN VLAN, but will only show
configured RSPAN VLAN identifiers.
