SPAN in ACI

[Helmi Muzammil]

Hi All,

Can I SPAN the EPGs (everywhere) to a directly port attached in the specific leaf?

i have 2 spines and 20 (1-20) leafs with almost 50 EPGs. and i want to SPAN 50 EPGs around the 20 leafs to a specific port in the leaf 15 ( monitoring server that is directly connected to leaf 15 )

Thanks,

Helmi

Hi Helmi, 

ACI has three types of SPANs. Each one of this see specific traffic, or in order words has its own purpose. 

To see packets going out / coming in specific port, go for >  Access SPAN 

To see packets going across Leaves, Go for Fabric SPAN.

For packets on specific EPG regardless of physical ports, Tenant SPAN is that you are looking for. 

In the GUI >  Under Tenant > Troubleshoot Policies > SPAN. 

1. Create Tenant Destination Groups.

2. Create SPAN Source Group.

3. Create SPAN Destination Group.
