How to make a cisco 3560 switch port work as receive only

Moahmed Sadek

I have a setup that i need to capture traffic from 6 non cisco switches for a one port traffic analyzer.

(the solution of remote span and span vlan is not supported on these switches)

So my solution would be to get the traffic from the 6 switches on 6 ports on the 3560 switch.

So to prevent loops, i need to make the ports receiving the traffic from the non-cisco switched to be receive only ports.

To receive the tarffic on 6 ports ( receive only) and then span the traffic to the analyzer


Is a thing like this possible?

How I could configure a port so as not to forward any frames?

Best Regards
