Port Configuration
IEEE 802.1X – RSPAN and 802.1X are mutually exclusive functions.
■
When 802.1X is enabled globally, RSPAN uplink ports cannot be
configured, even though RSPAN source and destination ports can
still be configured. When RSPAN uplink ports are enabled on the
switch, 802.1X cannot be enabled globally.
Port Security – If port security is enabled on any port, that port
■
cannot be set as an RSPAN uplink port, even though it can still be
configured as an RSPAN source or destination port. Also, when a
port is configured as an RSPAN uplink port, port security cannot be
enabled on that port.
P
ARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
Session – A number identifying this RSPAN session. (Range: 1-2)
◆
Only two mirror sessions are allowed, including both local and remote
mirroring. If local mirroring is enabled (see
only one session available for RSPAN.
Operation Status – Indicates whether or not RSPAN is currently
◆
functioning.
Switch Role – Specifies the role this switch performs in mirroring
◆
traffic.
None – This switch will not participate in RSPAN.
■
Source - Specifies this device as the source of remotely mirrored
■
traffic.
Intermediate - Specifies this device as an intermediate switch,
■
transparently passing mirrored traffic from one or more sources to
one or more destinations.
Destination - Specifies this device as a switch configured with a
■
destination port which is to receive mirrored traffic for this session.
Remote VLAN – The VLAN to which traffic mirrored from the source
◆
port will be flooded. The VLAN specified in this field must first be
reserved for the RSPAN application using the VLAN > Static page (see
page 178).
Uplink Port – A port on any switch participating in RSPAN through
◆
which mirrored traffic is passed on to or received from the RSPAN
VLAN.
Only one uplink port can be configured on a source switch, but there is
no limitation on the number of uplink ports
intermediate or destination switch.
Only destination and uplink ports will be assigned by the switch as
members of the RSPAN VLAN. Ports cannot be manually assigned to an
RSPAN VLAN through the VLAN > Static page. Nor can GVRP
