single VLAN on the source port(s).
Range: 1-4094. vlan range vlan-
list selects traffic from multiple
VLANs on the source port(s). In
the VLAN list, separate VLAN IDs
by a comma and space: vlan range
vlan-id, vlan-id, vlan-id
vlan range vlan-range selects
traffic from a range of VLANs on
the source port(s). Enter the VLAN
range in the format:
vlan range first_vlanID -
last_vlanID
A space is required before and
after the dash (-). vlan range
mixed-vlan-list selects traffic from
single VLANs and VLAN ranges on
the source port(s). Enter the mixed
VLAN list in any order: vlan range
vlan-id, first_vlanID - last_vlanID,
vlan-id. destination remote-vlan
vlan-id associates the reserved
VLAN with the source ports used
in this source session. direction
specifies the incoming/outgoing
traffic on the source port/ to be
mirrored: ingress (rx), egress (tx),
or ingress and egress (both)
3
no disable MONITOR SESSION Activate a remote-port mirroring
session.
4 flow-based enable MONITOR SESSION (Optional) Enable flow-based
mirroring for this source session to
monitor only specified traffic.
5 Repeat Steps 1 to 4 on other
source switches to configure
additional source ports for this
session.
To delete one or more source ports from a mirroring session, enter the no source interfaces destination remote-vlan vlan-id
direction direction command, specifying the ports to be deleted, remote VLAN ID, and traffic direction in the command syntax.
To change the RPM VLAN used in a source session, you can delete the session (no monitor session command) or remove the
current configuration by entering the no source interfaces destination remote-vlan vlan-id direction direction command. Then
re-enter the complete source command as described above to configure a new reserved VLAN for the same source ports in the
session.
To delete one or more source VLANs from a mirroring session, enter the no source interfaces {vlan vlan-id | vlan range
vlan-ids} destination remote-vlan vlan-id direction direction command, specifying the source VLANs to be deleted, the source
ports, remote VLAN ID, and traffic direction in the command syntax.
To update the source VLANs in a mirroring session, you must first remove the RPM configuration by entering the complete
no source interfaces {vlan vlan-id | vlan range vlan-ids} destination remote-vlan vlan-id direction direction command. Then
re-enter the command, specifying the source VLANs, the source ports, remote VLAN ID, and traffic direction in the command
syntax.
