Configuring SPAN / RSPAN Sources

To SPAN data to the NAM-1/2 for analysis first select the Setup > Data Sources > SPAN task (This task will

not be displayed on an NM-NAM). A table will be displayed showing the active SPAN sessions. This screen

is also useful to refer to when first accessing the NAM-1/2 to verify what the current NAM-1/2 data sources

are, in case they were changed since you last used the Traffic Analysis software.

If a SPAN session is already active, another one cannot be created (unless a NAM-2 is being utilized) until

the current session has been deleted. Another option is to Edit the current session, but only if the SPAN type

is not to be changed.

Note(s):

• The Active SPAN window will display all SPAN sessions on the host switch and not just the NAM

related SPAN sessions.

• Select Create to start a new SPAN session. (Refer to next page.)
