Configuring A Vlan As An Rspan Vlan; Creating An Rspan Source Session - Cisco 3750G - Catalyst Integrated Wireless LAN Controller Configuration Manual

Chapter 28 Configuring SPAN and RSPAN

Configuring a VLAN as an RSPAN VLAN

First create a new VLAN to be the RSPAN VLAN for the RSPAN session. You must create the RSPAN
VLAN in all switches that will participate in RSPAN. If the RSPAN VLAN-ID is in the normal range
(lower than 1005) and VTP is enabled in the network, you can create the RSPAN VLAN in one switch,
and VTP propagates it to the other switches in the VTP domain. For extended-range VLANs (greater
than 1005), you must configure RSPAN VLAN on both source and destination switches and any
intermediate switches.
Use VTP pruning to get an efficient flow of RSPAN traffic, or manually delete the RSPAN VLAN from
all trunks that do not need to carry the RSPAN traffic.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create an RSPAN VLAN:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2 vlan vlan-id
Step 3 remote-span
Step 4 end
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To remove the remote SPAN characteristic from a VLAN and convert it back to a normal VLAN, use the
no remote-span VLAN configuration command.
This example shows how to create RSPAN VLAN 901.
Switch(config)# vlan 901
Switch(config-vlan)# remote span
Switch(config-vlan)# end

Creating an RSPAN Source Session

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to start an RSPAN source session and to specify
the monitored source and the destination RSPAN VLAN:
Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2
no monitor session {session_number | all |
local | remote}
OL-8550-02
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter a VLAN ID to create a VLAN, or enter the VLAN ID of an
existing VLAN, and enter VLAN configuration mode. The range is
2 to 1001 and 1006 to 4094.
The RSPAN VLAN cannot be VLAN 1 (the default VLAN) or VLAN
IDs 1002 through 1005 (reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs).
Configure the VLAN as an RSPAN VLAN.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
(Optional) Save the configuration in the configuration file.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Remove any existing RSPAN configuration for the session.
For session_number, the range is 1 to 66.
Specify all to remove all RSPAN sessions, local to remove all local
sessions, or remote to remove all remote SPAN sessions.
