Configuring the Sample Remote Port Mirroring
Remote port mirroring requires a source session (monitored ports on different source switches), a reserved tagged VLAN for
transporting mirrored traffic (configured on source, intermediate, and destination switches), and a destination session
(destination ports connected to analyzers on destination switches).
Table 49. Configuration Steps for RPM
Step Command Purpose
1 configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
2
monitor session <id> type rpm The <id> needs to be unique and not already defined in the box
specifying type as 'rpm' defines a RPM session.
3 source Interface | Range
Specify the port or list of ports that needs to be monitored
4
direction Specify rx, tx or both in case to monitor ingress/egress or both
ingress and egress packets on the specified port..
5
rpm source-ip <id> dest-ip <id> Specify the source ip address and the destination ip where the
packet needs to be sent.
6
<no> flow-based enable Specify flow-based enable for mirroring on a flow by flow basis
and also for vlan as source.
7
no enable (Optional) No disable command is mandatory in order for a rpm
session to be active.
