traffic monitoring

[philipsyao]

i have a 6509 (version 12.2), and have some customers with static ip addresses. I need to mirroring the traffic from these customers and send to a hardware filter. Is using SPAN function the only way to do that?

I tried to do that on a BigIron layer3 switch. It's much eaiser to do that with the following configuration:

interface ether 5/15

ip policy route-map MAP1

route-map

match ip address 1

set mirror-port 5/12

ip access-list standard 1

permit ip host xx.xx.xx.xx

mirror-port ethe 5/12

Is there any way on Cisco platform similar to the BigIron solution? I have to do that on the cisco device because I have some customers connected to cisco, not through bigiron.

thanks for your comment

Wow thats cool. But i guess for our cisco span is the only solution. The more important thing, it cannot be based on IP as is this case you are doing with BigIron.
