Configure SPAN of an entire VLAN on M6100 switch

Configure SPAN of an entire VLAN on M6100 switch

Hello Community,

I would like to configure a port of my M6100 in SPAN mode, to mirror one or more VLANs (entire VLAN, not from single ports). I couldn't find the correct configuration, can someone help me?

 

Thanks

@stevros,

 

Welcome to the community! 🙂

 

Are you referring to RSPAN?  If yes, you may follow the steps as your guide that is indicated on pages 701-705 of the M6100 user manual here.  

 

Also, it would be best if you post an image of your detailed network diagram.

 

 

Regards,

Re: Configure SPAN of an entire VLAN on M6100 switch

Thanks @DaneA! I really believe it is RSPAN.

 

What I have to do is tell my switch that all the traffic of VLANs 5 and 8 must be sent to port 35 of the same switch, where there is a Network Probe.

 

I've tried to apply that configuration, but I'm also getting traffic from IP addresses that aren't part of these VLANs.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks

Hard to guess - show us the complete config, the set-up for the RSPAN VLAN (used for transport the captured traffic over the network), source and destination switch config, potentially the ACL in place, ....

 

Last but not least - aware that it might be difficult to push a lot of possible data on that VLAN over a single RSAPN VLAN to a single port?

Thank you for the support. I need to mirror all the traffic of VLANs 1 and 100, towards port 3/0/35, to which a network Probe is connected
