Feature Incompatibilities
•Egress SPAN is not supported in egress multicast mode. (CSCsa95965)
•Unknown unicast flood blocking (UUFB) ports cannot be RSPAN or local SPAN egress-only destinations. (CSCsj27695)
•A port-channel interface (an EtherChannel) can be a SPAN source, but you cannot configure active member ports of an EtherChannel as SPAN source ports. Inactive member ports of an EtherChannel can be configured as SPAN sources but they are put into the suspended state and carry no traffic.
•These features are incompatible with SPAN destinations:
–Private VLANs
–IEEE 802.1X port-based authentication
–Port security
–Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and related features (PortFast, PortFast BPDU filtering, BPDU Guard, UplinkFast, BackboneFast, EtherChannel Guard, Root Guard, Loop Guard)
–VLAN trunk protocol (VTP)
–Dynamic trunking protocol (DTP)
–IEEE 802.1Q tunneling
Note•SPAN destinations can participate in IEEE 802.3Z flow control.
•IP multicast switching using egress packet replication is not compatible with SPAN. In some cases, egress replication can result in multicast packets not being sent to the SPAN destination port. If you are using SPAN and your switching modules are capable of egress replication, enter the platform ip multicast replication-mode ingress command to force ingress replication.

Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN Interface Limits
General Restrictions for Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN
•A SPAN destination that is copying traffic from a single egress SPAN source port sends only egress traffic to the network analyzer. If you configure more than one egress SPAN source port, the traffic that is sent to the network analyzer also includes these types of ingress traffic that were received from the egress SPAN source ports:
–Any unicast traffic that is flooded on the VLAN
–Broadcast and multicast traffic
This situation occurs because an egress SPAN source port receives these types of traffic from the VLAN but then recognizes itself as the source of the traffic and drops it instead of sending it back to the source from which it was received. Before the traffic is dropped, SPAN copies the traffic and sends it to the SPAN destination. (CSCds22021)
•Entering additional monitor session commands does not clear previously configured SPAN parameters. You must enter the no monitor session command to clear configured SPAN parameters.
•Connect a network analyzer to the SPAN destinations.
•Within a SPAN session, all of the SPAN destinations receive all of the traffic from all of the SPAN sources, except when source-VLAN filtering is configured on the SPAN source.
•You can configure destination trunk VLAN filtering to select which traffic is transmitted from the SPAN destination.
•You can configure both Layer 2 LAN ports (LAN ports configured with the switchport command) and Layer 3 LAN ports (LAN ports not configured with the switchport command) as sources or destinations.
•You cannot mix individual source ports and source VLANs within a single session.
•If you specify multiple ingress source ports, the ports can belong to different VLANs.
•Within a session, you cannot configure both VLANs as SPAN sources and do source VLAN filtering. You can configure VLANs as SPAN sources or you can do source VLAN filtering of traffic from source ports and EtherChannels, but not both in the same session.
•You cannot configure source VLAN filtering for internal VLANs.
•When enabled, local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN use any previously entered configuration.
•When you specify sources and do not specify a traffic direction (ingress, egress, or both), "both" is used by default.
•SPAN copies Layer 2 Ethernet frames, but SPAN does not copy source trunk port 802.1Q tags. You can configure destinations as trunks to send locally tagged traffic to the traffic analyzer.
Note A destination configured as a trunk tags traffic from a Layer 3 LAN source with the internal VLAN used by the Layer 3 LAN source.
•Local SPAN sessions, RSPAN source sessions, and ERSPAN source sessions do not copy locally sourced RSPAN VLAN traffic from source trunk ports that carry RSPAN VLANs.
•Local SPAN sessions, RSPAN source sessions, and ERSPAN source sessions do not copy locally sourced ERSPAN GRE-encapsulated traffic from source ports.
•A port or EtherChannel can be a SPAN destination for only one SPAN session. SPAN sessions cannot share destinations.
•SPAN destinations cannot be SPAN sources.
•Destinations never participate in any spanning tree instance. Local SPAN includes BPDUs in the monitored traffic, so any BPDUs seen on the destination are from the source. RSPAN does not support BPDU monitoring.
•All packets forwarded through the switch for transmission from a port that is configured as an egress SPAN source are copied to the SPAN destination, including packets that do not exit the switch through the egress port because STP has put the egress port into the blocking state, or on an egress trunk port because STP has put the VLAN into the blocking state on the trunk port.
Restrictions for VSPAN
Note Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN all support VSPAN.
•VSPAN sessions do not support source VLAN filtering.
•For VSPAN sessions with both ingress and egress configured, two packets are forwarded from the destination to the analyzer if the packets get switched on the same VLAN (one as ingress traffic from the ingress port and one as egress traffic from the egress port).
•VSPAN only monitors traffic that leaves or enters Layer 2 ports in the VLAN.
–If you configure a VLAN as an ingress source and traffic gets routed into the monitored VLAN, the routed traffic is not monitored because it never appears as ingress traffic entering a Layer 2 port in the VLAN.
–If you configure a VLAN as an egress source and traffic gets routed out of the monitored VLAN, the routed traffic is not monitored because it never appears as egress traffic leaving a Layer 2 port in the VLAN.
Restrictions for RSPAN
•All participating switches must be connected by Layer 2 trunks.
•Any network device that supports RSPAN VLANs can be an RSPAN intermediate device.
•Networks impose no limit on the number of RSPAN VLANs that the networks carry.
•Intermediate network devices might impose limits on the number of RSPAN VLANs that they can support.
•You must configure the RSPAN VLANs in all source, intermediate, and destination network devices. If enabled, the VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) can propagate configuration of VLANs numbered 1 through 1024 as RSPAN VLANs. You must manually configure VLANs numbered higher than 1024 as RSPAN VLANs on all source, intermediate, and destination network devices.
•If you enable VTP and VTP pruning, RSPAN traffic is pruned in the trunks to prevent the unwanted flooding of RSPAN traffic across the network.
•RSPAN VLANs can be used only for RSPAN traffic.
•Do not configure a VLAN used to carry management traffic as an RSPAN VLAN.
•Do not assign access ports to RSPAN VLANs. RSPAN puts access ports in an RSPAN VLAN into the suspended state.
•Do not configure any ports in an RSPAN VLAN except trunk ports selected to carry RSPAN traffic.
•MAC address learning is disabled in the RSPAN VLAN.
•You can use output access control lists (ACLs) on the RSPAN VLAN in the RSPAN source switch to filter the traffic sent to an RSPAN destination.
•RSPAN does not support BPDU monitoring.
•Do not configure RSPAN VLANs as sources in VSPAN sessions.
•You can configure any VLAN as an RSPAN VLAN as long as all participating network devices support configuration of RSPAN VLANs and you use the same RSPAN VLAN for each RSPAN session in all participating network devices.
Restrictions for ERSPAN
•For ERSPAN packets, the "protocol type" field value in the GRE header is 0x88BE.
•The payload of a Layer 3 ERSPAN packet is a copied Layer 2 Ethernet frame, excluding any 802.1Q tags.
•ERSPAN adds a 50-byte header to each copied Layer 2 Ethernet frame and replaces the 4-byte cyclic redundancy check (CRC) trailer.
•ERSPAN supports jumbo frames that contain Layer 3 packets of up to 9,202 bytes. If the length of the copied Layer 2 Ethernet frame is greater than 9,170 (9,152-byte Layer 3 packet), ERSPAN truncates the copied Layer 2 Ethernet frame to create a 9,202-byte ERSPAN Layer 3 packet.
Note The Layer 3 IP header in truncated packets retains the nontruncated Layer 3 packet size. The length consistency check between the Layer 2 frame and the Layer 3 packet on ERSPAN destinations that are 6500 switches drops truncated ERSPAN packets unless you configure the no platform verify ip length consistent global configuration command on the ERSPAN destination 6500 switch.
•Regardless of any configured MTU size, ERSPAN creates Layer 3 packets that can be as long as 9,202 bytes. ERSPAN traffic might be dropped by any interface in the network that enforces an MTU size smaller than 9,202 bytes.
•With the default MTU size (1,500 bytes), if the length of the copied Layer 2 Ethernet frame is greater than 1,468 bytes (1,450-byte Layer 3 packet), the ERSPAN traffic is dropped by any interface in the network that enforces the 1,500-byte MTU size.
Note The mtu interface command and the system jumbomtu command (see the "Configuring Jumbo Frame Support" section) set the maximum Layer 3 packet size (default is 1,500 bytes, maximum is 9,216 bytes).
•All participating switches must be connected at Layer 3 and the network path must support the size of the ERSPAN traffic.
•ERSPAN does not support packet fragmentation. The "do not fragment" bit is set in the IP header of ERSPAN packets. ERSPAN destination sessions cannot reassemble fragmented ERSPAN packets.
•ERSPAN traffic is subject to the traffic load conditions of the network. You can set the ERSPAN packet IP precedence or DSCP value to prioritize ERSPAN traffic for QoS.
•The only supported destination for ERSPAN traffic is an ERSPAN destination session.
•All ERSPAN source sessions on a switch must use the same origin IP address, configured with the origin ip address command (see the "Configuring ERSPAN Source Sessions" section).
•All ERSPAN destination sessions on a switch must use the same IP address on the same destination interface. You enter the destination interface IP address with the ip address command (see the "Configuring ERSPAN Destination Sessions" section).
•The ERSPAN source session's destination IP address, which must be configured on an interface on the destination switch, is the source of traffic that an ERSPAN destination session sends to the destinations. You configure the same address in both the source and destination sessions with the ip address command.
•The ERSPAN ID differentiates the ERSPAN traffic arriving at the same destination IP address from various different ERSPAN source sessions.
Restrictions for Distributed Egress SPAN Mode
Some switching modules have ASICs that do not support distributed egress SPAN mode for ERSPAN sources.
Enter the show monitor session egress replication-mode | include Distributed.*Distributed.*Centralized command to display the slot number of any switching modules that do not support distributed egress SPAN mode for ERSPAN sources.
Enter the show asic-version slot slot_number command to display the versions of the ASICs on the switching module in the slot where distributed egress SPAN mode is not supported for ERSPAN sources.
Hyperion ASIC revision levels 5.0 and higher and all versions of the Metropolis ASIC support distributed egress SPAN mode for ERSPAN sources. Switching modules with Hyperion ASIC revision levels lower than 5.0 do not support distributed egress SPAN mode for ERSPAN sources.

Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN Overview
•Traffic Monitored at SPAN Sources
SPAN Operation
SPAN copies traffic from one or more ports, one or more EtherChannels, or one or more VLANs, and sends the copied traffic to one or more destinations for analysis by a network analyzer such as a SwitchProbe device or other Remote Monitoring (RMON) probe. Traffic can also be sent to the processor for packet capture by the Mini Protocol Analyzer, as described in Chapter 57 "Mini Protocol Analyzer."
SPAN does not affect the switching of traffic on sources. You must dedicate the destination for SPAN use. The SPAN-generated copies of traffic compete with user traffic for switch resources.
Local SPAN Overview
A local SPAN session is an association of source ports and source VLANs with one or more destinations. You configure a local SPAN session on a single switch. Local SPAN does not have separate source and destination sessions.
Local SPAN sessions do not copy locally sourced RSPAN VLAN traffic from source trunk ports that carry RSPAN VLANs. Local SPAN sessions do not copy locally sourced RSPAN GRE-encapsulated traffic from source ports.
Each local SPAN session can have either ports or VLANs as sources, but not both.
Local SPAN copies traffic from one or more source ports in any VLAN or from one or more VLANs to a destination for analysis (see Figure 53-1). For example, as shown in Figure 53-1, all traffic on Ethernet port 5 (the source port) is copied to Ethernet port 10. A network analyzer on Ethernet port 10 receives all traffic from Ethernet port 5 without being physically attached to Ethernet port 5.
Figure 53-1 Example SPAN Configuration
RSPAN Overview
RSPAN supports source ports, source VLANs, and destinations on different switches, which provides remote monitoring of multiple switches across your network (see Figure 53-2). RSPAN uses a Layer 2 VLAN to carry SPAN traffic between switches.
RSPAN consists of an RSPAN source session, an RSPAN VLAN, and an RSPAN destination session. You separately configure RSPAN source sessions and destination sessions on different switches. To configure an RSPAN source session on one switch, you associate a set of source ports or VLANs with an RSPAN VLAN. To configure an RSPAN destination session on another switch, you associate the destinations with the RSPAN VLAN.
The traffic for each RSPAN session is carried as Layer 2 nonroutable traffic over a user-specified RSPAN VLAN that is dedicated for that RSPAN session in all participating switches. All participating switches must be trunk-connected at Layer 2.
RSPAN source sessions do not copy locally sourced RSPAN VLAN traffic from source trunk ports that carry RSPAN VLANs. RSPAN source sessions do not copy locally sourced RSPAN GRE-encapsulated traffic from source ports.
Each RSPAN source session can have either ports or VLANs as sources, but not both.
The RSPAN source session copies traffic from the source ports or source VLANs and switches the traffic over the RSPAN VLAN to the RSPAN destination session. The RSPAN destination session switches the traffic to the destinations.
Figure 53-2 RSPAN Configuration
ERSPAN Overview
ERSPAN supports source ports, source VLANs, and destinations on different switches, which provides remote monitoring of multiple switches across your network (see Figure 53-3). ERSPAN uses a GRE tunnel to carry traffic between switches.
ERSPAN consists of an ERSPAN source session, routable ERSPAN GRE-encapsulated traffic, and an ERSPAN destination session. You separately configure ERSPAN source sessions and destination sessions on different switches.
To configure an ERSPAN source session on one switch, you associate a set of source ports or VLANs with a destination IP address, ERSPAN ID number, and optionally with a VRF name. To configure an ERSPAN destination session on another switch, you associate the destinations with the source IP address, ERSPAN ID number, and optionally with a VRF name.
ERSPAN source sessions do not copy locally sourced RSPAN VLAN traffic from source trunk ports that carry RSPAN VLANs. ERSPAN source sessions do not copy locally sourced ERSPAN GRE-encapsulated traffic from source ports.
Each ERSPAN source session can have either ports or VLANs as sources, but not both.
The ERSPAN source session copies traffic from the source ports or source VLANs and forwards the traffic using routable GRE-encapsulated packets to the ERSPAN destination session. The ERSPAN destination session switches the traffic to the destinations.
Figure 53-3 ERSPAN Configuration
Traffic Monitored at SPAN Sources
Monitored Traffic Direction
You can configure local SPAN sessions, RSPAN source sessions, and ERSPAN source sessions to monitor the following traffic:
•Ingress traffic
–Called ingress SPAN.
–Copies traffic received by the sources (ingress traffic).
–Ingress traffic is sent to the supervisor engine SPAN ASIC to be copied.
•Egress traffic
–Called egress SPAN.
–Copies traffic transmitted from the sources (egress traffic).
–Distributed egress SPAN mode—On some fabric-enabled switching modules, egress traffic can be copied locally by the switching module SPAN ASIC and then sent to the SPAN destinations. See the "Restrictions for Distributed Egress SPAN Mode" section for information about switching modules that support distributed egress SPAN mode.
–Centralized egress SPAN mode—On all other switching modules, egress traffic is sent to the supervisor engine SPAN ASIC to be copied and is then sent to the SPAN destinations.
•Both
–Copies both the received traffic and the transmitted traffic (ingress and egress traffic).
–Both ingress traffic and egress traffic is sent to the supervisor engine SPAN ASIC to be copied.
Monitored Traffic Type
By default, local SPAN and ERSPAN monitor all traffic, including multicast and bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) frames. RSPAN does not support BPDU monitoring.
Duplicate Traffic
In some configurations, SPAN sends multiple copies of the same source traffic to the destination. For example, in a configuration with a bidirectional SPAN session (both ingress and egress) for two SPAN sources, called s1 and s2, to a SPAN destination, called d1, if a packet enters the switch through s1 and is sent for egress from the switch to s2, ingress SPAN at s1 sends a copy of the packet to SPAN destination d1 and egress SPAN at s2 sends a copy of the packet to SPAN destination d1. If the packet was Layer 2 switched from s1 to s2, both SPAN packets would be the same. If the packet was Layer 3 switched from s1 to s2, the Layer 3 rewrite would alter the source and destination Layer 2 addresses, in which case the SPAN packets would be different.
Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN Sources
•Source Ports and EtherChannels
Source Ports and EtherChannels
A source port or EtherChannel is a port or EtherChannel monitored for traffic analysis. You can configure both Layer 2 and Layer 3 ports and EtherChannels as SPAN sources. SPAN can monitor one or more source ports or EtherChannels in a single SPAN session. You can configure ports or EtherChannels in any VLAN as SPAN sources. Trunk ports or EtherChannels can be configured as sources and mixed with nontrunk sources.
Note SPAN does not copy the encapsulation from trunk sources. You can configure SPAN destinations as trunks to tag the monitored traffic before it is transmitted for analysis.
Source VLANs
A source VLAN is a VLAN monitored for traffic analysis. VLAN-based SPAN (VSPAN) uses a VLAN as the SPAN source. All the ports and EtherChannels in the source VLANs become sources of SPAN traffic.
Note Layer 3 VLAN interfaces on source VLANs are not sources of SPAN traffic. Traffic that enters a VLAN through a Layer 3 VLAN interface is monitored when it is transmitted from the switch through an egress port or EtherChannel that is in the source VLAN.
Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN Destinations
A SPAN destination is a Layer 2 port, Layer 3 port, or an EtherChannel, to which local SPAN, RSPAN, or ERSPAN sends traffic for analysis. When you configure a port or EtherChannel as a SPAN destination, it is dedicated for use only by the SPAN feature.
Destination EtherChannels do not support the Port Aggregation Control Protocol (PAgP) or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) EtherChannel protocols; only the on mode is supported, with all EtherChannel protocol support disabled.
There is no requirement that the member links of a destination EtherChannel be connected to a device that supports EtherChannels. For example, you can connect the member links to separate network analyzers. See Chapter 22 "EtherChannels," for more information about EtherChannel.
Destinations, by default, cannot receive any traffic. You can configure Layer 2 destinations to receive traffic from any attached devices.
Destinations, by default, do not transmit anything except SPAN traffic. Layer 2 destinations that you have configured to receive traffic can be configured to learn the Layer 2 address of any devices attached to the destination and transmit traffic that is addressed to the devices.
You can configure trunks as destinations, which allows trunk destinations to transmit encapsulated traffic. You can use allowed VLAN lists to configure destination trunk VLAN filtering.
Default Settings for Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN

•RSPAN: disabled
•ERSPAN: disabled

How to Configure Local SPAN, RSPAN, and ERSPAN
•Configuring a Destination as an Unconditional Trunk (Optional)
•Configuring Destination Trunk VLAN Filtering (Optional)
•Configuring Destination Port Permit Lists (Optional)
•Configuring the Egress SPAN Mode (Optional)
•Configuring Source VLAN Filtering in Global Configuration Mode
Configuring a Destination as an Unconditional Trunk (Optional)
To configure the destination as a trunk so that the monitored traffic is tagged as it leaves the destination, perform this task:
This example shows how to configure a port as an unconditional IEEE 802.1Q trunk:
Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 5/12
Router(config-if)# switchport
Router(config-if)# switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
Router(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
Configuring Destination Trunk VLAN Filtering (Optional)
Note•In addition to filtering VLANs on a trunk, you can also apply the allowed VLAN list to access ports.
•Destination trunk VLAN filtering is applied at the destination. Destination trunk VLAN filtering does not reduce the amount of traffic being sent from the SPAN sources to the SPAN destinations.
When a destination is a trunk, you can use the list of VLANs allowed on the trunk to filter the traffic transmitted from the destination. (CSCeb01318)
Destination trunk VLAN filtering removes the restriction that, within a SPAN session, all destinations receive all the traffic from all the sources. Destination trunk VLAN filtering allows you to select, on a per-VLAN basis, the traffic that is transmitted from each destination trunk to the network analyzer.
To configure destination trunk VLAN filtering on a destination trunk, perform this task:
•The vlan parameter is either a single VLAN number from 1 through 4094, or a range of VLANs described by two VLAN numbers, the lesser one first, separated by a dash. Do not enter any spaces between comma-separated vlan parameters or in dash-specified ranges.
•All VLANs are allowed by default.
•To remove all VLANs from the allowed list, enter the switchport trunk allowed vlan none command.
•To add VLANs to the allowed list, enter the switchport trunk allowed vlan add command.
•You can modify the allowed VLAN list without removing the SPAN configuration.
This example shows the configuration of a local SPAN session that has several VLANs as sources and several trunk ports as destinations, with destination trunk VLAN filtering that filters the SPAN traffic so that each destination trunk port transmits the traffic from one VLAN:

Configuring Destination Port Permit Lists (Optional)
To prevent accidental configuration of ports as destinations, you can create a permit list of the ports that are valid for use as destinations. With a destination port permit list configured, you can only configure the ports in the permit list as destinations.
To configure a destination port permit list, perform this task:
This example shows how to configure a destination port permit list that includes Gigabit Ethernet ports 5/1 through 5/4 and 6/1:
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# monitor permit-list
Router(config)# monitor permit-list destination interface gigabitethernet 5/1-4,
gigabitethernet 6/1
This example shows how to verify the configuration:
Router(config)# do show monitor permit-list
SPAN Permit-list :Admin Enabled
Permit-list ports :Gi5/1-4,Gi6/1
Configuring the Egress SPAN Mode (Optional)
Centralized egress SPAN mode is the default. See the "Restrictions for Distributed Egress SPAN Mode" section for information about switching modules that support distributed egress SPAN mode.
To configure the egress SPAN mode, perform this task:
This example shows how to enable distributed egress SPAN mode:
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# monitor session egress replication-mode distributed
Router(config)# end
This example shows how to disable distributed egress SPAN mode:
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# monitor session egress replication-mode centralized
Router(config)# end
This example shows how to display the configured egress SPAN mode:
Router# show monitor session egress replication-mode | include Configured
Configured mode : Centralized
Configuring Local SPAN
•Configuring Local SPAN (SPAN Configuration Mode)
•Configuring Local SPAN (Global Configuration Mode)
Configuring Local SPAN (SPAN Configuration Mode)
Note To tag the monitored traffic as it leaves a destination, you must configure the destination to trunk unconditionally before you configure it as a destination (see the "Configuring a Destination as an Unconditional Trunk (Optional)" section).
To configure a local SPAN session in SPAN configuration mode, perform this task:
|
|
|
---|---|---|
Step 1 |
Router# configure terminal |
Enters global configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
Router(config)# monitor session local_SPAN_session_number type [local | local-tx] |
Configures a local SPAN session number and enters local SPAN session configuration mode. Note •Enter the local keyword to configure ingress or egress or both SPAN sessions. •Enter the local-tx keyword to configure egress-only SPAN sessions. |
Step 3 |
Router(config-mon-local)# description session_description |
(Optional) Describes the local SPAN session. |
Step 4 |
Router(config-mon-local)# source {single_interface | interface_list | interface_range | mixed_interface_list | single_vlan | vlan_list | vlan_range | mixed_vlan_list} [rx | tx | both] |
Associates the local SPAN session number with the source ports or VLANs, and selects the traffic direction to be monitored. Note •When you enter the local-tx keyword, the rx and both keywords are not available and the tx keyword is required. •To make best use of the available SPAN sessions, it is always preferable to configure local-tx sessions instead of local sessions with the tx keyword. |
Step 5 |
Router(config-mon-local)# filter single_vlan | vlan_list | vlan_range | mixed_vlan_list |
(Optional) Configures source VLAN filtering when the local SPAN source is a trunk port. |
Step 6 |
Router(config-mon-local)# destination {single_interface | interface_list | interface_range | mixed_interface_list} [ingress [learning]] |
Associates the local SPAN session number with the destinations. |
Step 7 |
Router(config-mon-local)# no shutdown |
Activates the local SPAN session. Note The no shutdown command and shutdown commands are not supported for local-tx egress-only SPAN sessions. |
Step 8 |
Router(config-mon-local)# end |
Exits configuration mode. |
