Configuration Example of RPM for port-channel
This example provides a sample configuration of remote port mirroring for the port-channel source interface.
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on source switch
The below configuration example shows that the source is a source port-channel and the destination is the reserved VLAN (for
example, remote-vlan 30).
DellEMC(conf)#inte twentyFiveGigE 1/30
DellEMC(conf-if-tf-1/30)#no shutdown
DellEMC(conf-if-tf-1/30)#switchport
DellEMC(conf-if-tf-1/30)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 30
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-30)#mode remote-port-mirroring
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-30)#tagged twentyFiveGigE 1/30
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-30)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#interface port-channel 10
DellEMC(conf-if-po-10)#channel-member twentyFiveGigE 1/28 - 1/28
DellEMC(conf-if-po-10)#no shutdown
DellEMC(conf-if-po-10)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#monitor session 3 type rpm
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-3)#source port-channel 10 destination remote-vlan 30 dir both
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-3)#no disable
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-3)#exit
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on an intermediate switch
Following is a sample configuration of RPM on an intermediate switch.
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 30
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-20)#mode remote-port-mirroring
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-20)#tagged twentyFiveGigE 1/4
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-20)#tagged twentyFiveGigE 1/5
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-20)#exit
Configuring Remote Port Mirroring on a Destination switch
Following is a sample configuration of RPM on a destination switch.
DellEMC(conf)#interface twentyFiveGigE 1/7
DellEMC(conf-if-tf-1/7)#switchport
DellEMC(conf-if-tf-1/7)#no shutdown
DellEMC(conf-if-tf-1/7)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#interface vlan 30
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-30)#mode remote-port-mirroring
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-30)#tagged twentyFiveGigE 1/7
DellEMC(conf-if-vl-30)#exit
DellEMC(conf)#monitor session 3 type rpm
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-3)#source remote-vlan 30 destination twentyFiveGigE 1/8
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-3)#tagged destination twentyFiveGigE 1/8
DellEMC(conf-mon-sess-3)#end
Encapsulated Remote Port Monitoring
Encapsulated Remote Port Monitoring (ERPM) copies traffic from source ports/port-channels or source VLANs and forwards
the traffic using routable GRE-encapsulated packets to the destination IP address specified in the session.
NOTE:
When configuring ERPM, follow these guidelines
● The Dell EMC Networking OS supports ERPM source session only. Encapsulated packets terminate at the destination IP
address or at the analyzer.
