what does data-port mean in IDSM2

Hello,

When configuring IDSM2 in Cat6K, there is a command with parameters of data port:

# monitor session 1 destination intrusion-detection-module 9 data-port 1

What does the data-port mean? does it mean the monitoring interface 7 or 8?

Thanks,

Data-port is the sensing interface.

For CAT OS, port 7 and 8 are the sensing interfaces, and

For IOS, data port 1 and 2 are the sensing interfaces.

Here is the URL for your reference:

Hope that answers your question.
