Setting a Monitor Session
The
monitor session
command, in Global Configuration mode, starts a new traffic monitoring
session. Use the
no
form of this command to remove the monitor session or to remove the source
VLANs.
To add or delete VLANs to or from an existing traffic monitoring session the user needs to disable
the monitor session definitions and to create a new monitor session.
NOTE
If the user wants to monitor the traffic on the LAG ports the user needs to define
all the LAG ports in the source port list.
NOTE
On the advanced uplink ports, the monitor session command will not display traffic
from and to the MPLS cloud.
