Hello,

Please see the below KB for procedure on how to configure port mirroring.

https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/Q_A/How-to-configure-SPAN-Port-mirroring-in-NOS

Also, additional details are in the VDX monitoring manual. See page 33.

https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/networkos/SW/74x/nos-740-monitoring.pdf

One thing to remember is to disable LLDP on the destination mirror port or you will get an error while trying to configure the monitor session.

For example. The below disables LLDP on port 10, so it can be the destination mirror port. Then, we configure a monitor session for it.

sw0(conf-if-te-104/0/1)# int te 104/0/10

sw0(conf-if-te-104/0/10)# lldp disable 2020/08/04-05:00:34, [ONMD-1004], 878, DCE, INFO, sw0, LLDP is disabled on interface Te 104/0/10.

sw0(conf-if-te-104/0/10)# exit

sw0(config)# monitor session 1 2020/08/04-05:00:42, [NSM-1031], 879, DCE, INFO, sw0, Session 1 is created.

sw0(config-session-1)# source tengigabitethernet 104/0/1 destination tengigabitethernet 104/0/10 direction both 2020/08/04-05:01:21, [NSM-1034], 880, DCE, INFO, sw0, Session 1 configuration is added.

sw0(config-session-1)# do sh run monitor monitor session 1 source tengigabitethernet 104/0/1 destination tengigabitethernet 104/0/10 direction both !

Hope that helps.

Thinks, I want something based on the source IP address not based on the port

If you are looking to SPAN a certain IP/Flow, please see page 40 of the same monitoring manual.

https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/networkos/SW/74x/nos-740-monitoring.pdf

Flow-based SPAN selectively mirrors the traffic coming on the source port that matches an ACL-based filter to a destination port, which can be a local node or remote node to support RSPAN.

if you are looking to do bi-directional capture, see the below KB to change the TCAM hardware profile.

Thinks， I found this article earlier .I want to know what the impact of changing this will be.

By default, the current TCAM hardware profile allocates TCAM resources for standard implementation with the most common features. Changing the TCAM profile to "IPV4-V6-QOS" will re-allocate more TCAM rosources for IPv4/v6 and QoS traffic.

If you are on version 7.x or higher, you can run the below two commands to get the differences and how the TCAM will change from one profile to the other.

sw0# show hardware-profile tcam defaultsw0# show hardware-profile tcam ipv4-v6-qos

Thank you very much!
