Hello.
I would like to perform a spanning
of a full-duplex 100 Mb interface towards
2 different interfaces, to avoid the frames loss problem, due to the fact
that 200 Mbit ( 100Mb in one direction and 100 Mb in the opposite direction)
of traffic cannot be mirrored to a 100 mbit link of the spanning-port.
e.g.;
(suppose the original traffic in the 2/5 port,
and the port 2/8 and 2/9 the 2 destination mirroring ports )
If I try to give the commands:
set span 2/5 2/8 rx
set span 2/5 2/9 tx
only the last command is accepted.
While it's possible to give the command:
set span 2/5 2/8 both
but in this way the port 2/8 is filled with 200Mb of traffic, of course loosing packets.
Does some workaround exist to solve this?
thanks
