Traffic Monitoring

Traffic Monitoring

Traffic monitoring copies traffic, from one or more source ports, and sends it to a dedicated destination port for analysis by a network analyzer. This feature is also known as Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN).


Important

For FC port channels on Cisco UCS 6200 Fabric Interconnects, you can monitor only egress traffic.

For FC port channels on Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnects, you can monitor only ingress traffic.

Traffic Monitoring Session Types

When you create a traffic monitoring session, you can choose either an Ethernet or Fibre Channel destination port to receive the traffic. The type of destination port determines the type of session, which in turn determines the types of available traffic sources. For an Ethernet traffic monitoring session, the destination port must be an unconfigured physical port. For a Fibre Channel traffic monitoring session, the destination port must be a Fibre Channel uplink port.


Note

For Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnects, the destination port must also be an unconfigured physical Ethernet port. For Cisco UCS 6332 and Cisco UCS 6332-16UP Fabric Interconnects, you cannot choose Fibre Channel destination ports, but can use unconfigured ethernet ports as a destination for FC traffic monitoring sessions.

Traffic Monitoring Across Ethernet

An Ethernet traffic monitoring session can monitor any of the following traffic source and destination ports:

Source Ports

Destination Ports

  • Uplink Ethernet port

  • Ethernet port channel

  • VLAN

  • Service profile vNIC

  • Service profile vHBA

  • FCoE port

  • Port channels

  • Unified uplink port

  • VSAN

  • Unified storage port

  • Appliance storage port

  • Unconfigured Ethernet Port

Traffic Monitoring for UCS 6300 Interconnects

  • Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnect supports port-based mirroring.
  • Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnect supports VLAN SPAN only in the receive (rx) direction.
  • Ethernet SPAN is port based on the Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnect.

Traffic Monitoring for UCS 6200 Interconnects

  • Cisco UCS 6200 and 6324 supports monitoring traffic in the transmit (tx) direction for up to two sources per Fabric Interconnect.
  • Cisco UCS 6200 SPAN traffic is rate-limited by the SPAN destination port speed. This can be either 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps.

Traffic Monitoring Across Fibre Channel

You can monitor Fibre Channel traffic using either a Fibre Channel traffic analyzer or an Ethernet traffic analyzer. When Fibre Channel traffic is monitored with an Ethernet traffic monitoring session, the destination traffic is FCoE. The Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnect supports FC SPAN only on the ingress side. You cannot configure a Fibre Channel port on a Cisco Cisco UCS 6248 Fabric Interconnect as a source port.

A Fibre Channel traffic monitoring session can monitor any of the following traffic source and destination ports:

Source Ports

Destination Ports

  • FC Port

  • FC Port Channel

  • Uplink Fibre Channel port

  • SAN port channel

  • VSAN

  • Service profile vHBA

  • Fibre Channel storage port

  • Fibre Channel uplink port
  • Ethernet Port (only for Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnects)

Guidelines and Recommendations for Traffic Monitoring

When configuring or activating traffic monitoring, consider the following guidelines:

Traffic Monitoring Sessions

A traffic monitoring session is disabled by default when created. To begin monitoring traffic, you must activate the session.

  • Create a unique traffic monitoring session on any fabric interconnect within the Cisco UCS pod.

  • Create each monitoring session with a unique name and unique source.

  • Add all vNICs from the service profile of a server to monitor traffic from a server.

  • Locate all traffic sources within the same switch as the destination port.

  • Do not add the same source in multiple traffic monitoring sessions.

  • Do not configure a port as a destination port and a source port.

  • Do not configure a member port, of a port channel, individually as a source. If you configure the port channel as a source, all member ports are source ports.

Maximum Supported Active Traffic Monitoring Sessions

You can only monitor up to four traffic directions for each Cisco UCS 6300 Fabric Interconnect. You can create and store up to 16 traffic monitoring sessions, but only four can be active at the same time for each Fabric Interconnect. The receive and transmit directions each count separately as one active session, while the bidirectional is counted as two active sessions. For example:

  • Four active sessions—If each session is configured to monitor traffic in only one direction.

  • Two active sessions—If each session is configured to monitor traffic bidirectionally.

  • Three active sessions—If one session is unidirectional and the second session is bidirectional.


Note

Traffic monitoring can impose a significant load on your system resources. To minimize the load, select sources that carry as little unwanted traffic as possible and disable traffic monitoring when it is not needed.

vNIC

Because a traffic monitoring destination is a single physical port, a traffic monitoring session can monitor only a single fabric. To monitor uninterrupted vNIC traffic across a fabric failover, create two sessions, one per fabric, and connect two analyzers. Add the vNIC as the traffic source using the exact same name for both sessions. If you change the port profile of a virtual machine, you must reconfigure the monitoring session. All associated vNICs used as source ports are removed from monitoring.

vHBA

You can use a vHBA as a source for either an Ethernet or Fibre Channel monitoring session, but it cannot be a source for both simultaneously. When a VHBA is set as the SPAN source, the SPAN destination only receives VN-tagged frames. It does not receive direct FC frames.

SPAN Ports Support Matrix


Note

For Cisco UCS 6200 and 6324 FIs, you can only set the source mode to transmit for two sources per Cisco UCS domain.
