Configuring Fibre Channel Destination Port

The following example shows configuring an Ethernet SPAN destination port:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/3
switch(config-if)# switchport monitor
switch(config-if)# exit
switch(config)# monitor session 2
switch(config-monitor)# destination interface ethernet 1/3
