EWC is not sending packets to the mirror L2 port

[Steve_Ballantyn]

I initially had some trouble getting my EWC to talk to my Purview box. That has been resolved, and now my Purview box is receiving flow statistics. However, it's not receiving the actual flow data.

On my controller, I am using esa0 as lag1 which (at present) contains all of my WLAN's. esa1 is defined as a mirror. I have esa1 connected directly to a NIC on my VMWare server, which is then attached via VMWare to my Purview host. Initially I thought this might be related to Purview or the VMWare server.

However - if I ssh' into my controller and run a 'shell', then do a 'tcpdump -i eth1', I am seeing nothing flowing through that NIC.

I have gone over and over my settings on the controller, and just about everywhere I can look I have mirroring "allowed in both directions" and Netflow set to enabled.

Anyone how an idea on where I can look?

Thanks!!

Couple things to check... Make sure you have both interfaces configured on the Purview box.. do a "ifconfig" and make sure you have the loopback, eth0 and eth1 listed. (sometimes you might need to the command as "ifconfig | more" to see everything), could be you selected a single interface when you installed it? Check that and let me know...
