I have cisco nexus 3548 and I created a monitor session while as 10Gi source port gi1/0/1 and 10Gi destination port Gi1/0/24. So my source port has 10Gi duplex traffic while my destination is only able to receive 5Gi duplex traffic.

 

I have a scenario as I have 30 10Gi lines ie. each line will be having 10Gi tx traffic and 10Gi rx traffic, so now I want to create 30 span/monitor session such that I can do one-to-one port mirroring of each of these lines at a single instance of time.

So my present limitation is my cisco 3548 switchcan have only 2 maximum active span session at single instance of time with also the limitation of only able to mirror 5 gi taffic when traffic exceeds 5Gi.

 

So now I want to purchase a switch which can fulfill my above scenario ie. having 30 active span session at a single instance of time while able to mirror all traffic without any limitation.

Budget is not an issue so please let me know if anybody can suggest

huh??  Why and the hell would you need 30 span sessions?

 

Also your saying you are seeing 10ge of traffic on port your spanning, but on the span your only able to see 1/2 of it??  Then I would guess you set the sampling to 2.. where you only see 1 out of 2 packets.. This is setting that can be adjusted.. Didn't think sampling was on by default so you must of turned it on.  Or your only doing 1 direction ie ingress or egress?

 

If I look here..

Says it can do 4 bi-directional sessions.

 

Pretty sure you can do some really odd things if you enable the warp span licensing on those switches.  Those switches are low latency switches..

 

If your wanting to monitor traffic of 30 different ports all the same time.. Your talking using taps not the switch itself..  I know of no switch that can do that many active span sessions..

    • Amazon Deal: Sony 65 inch 4K Bravia 5 2025 Mini LED TV with Dolby Vision/Atmos is $200 off by Sayan Sen Recently, we covered soundbar home theatre deals from Samsung and JBL for under $1000. Those are still selling for their best prices and you can check them out in their respective articles linked above. Obviously, for a home theatre, you also need a display, and depending on the kind of setup and room you have, you could choose a fairly premium projector like Valerion's StreamMaster Plus2 4K that is currently $300 off on Amazon US, or you could look for a TV. If you are looking for something for under $1500 then Sony has a great deal at the moment. The company's Bravia 5 mini LED 65-inch TV is on sale for $1298 thanks to a $200 discount (purchase link under the specs list below). Mini LEDs, unlike LEDs, promise much better precision in terms of backlighting which should lead to better contrasts with deeper blacks and brighter whites without being overblown either way.
