VSP - mirror of NNI link

EF — Wed, 22 May 2019 17:26:49 GMT

Hi team,

in SPB network I´m mirroring NNI link but our traffic analyzer cannot understand the packets so all of them are encapsulated in 802.1ah.

Is there any technique to desencapsulate traffic inside device before deliver to the mirrored port? Any idea?

Regards,

EF

Use Wireshark; it will decode 802.1ah fine.

Thanks Ludovico for your answer but is not the solution for me, the traffic is mirrored to security devices that not understand 802.1AH header, so I would must strip it before and I don´t know/beleave that this is possible.

Hello,

Did you ever figure this out? I'm in a similar situation.

Thanks
