CCNP2 - SPAN?

[Ibrahim010]

Hey Folks,

Was just wondering: Is SPAN a topic that is being discussed in the CCNP2 book? Because i just went over it, and i cant find it?! Neither does the lab manual mention anything about SPAN? I just had an exam (school) and there i was confronted with SPAN, yet i knew nothing of it. I had done the lab manual twice and nothing of that sort was discussed there. I asked the tutor, and he reffered me to the book?

Anyone knows where (what page) SPAN is discussed in the CCNP2 book or lab manual?

Regards.

SPAN is used for port monitoring and copying, can also be known as port

mirroring.

Thanks for the update on SPAN, true i just went searching for SPAN, and its indeed used for monitoring and the sorts. My question tho; is span coverd in the CCNP2 book/course? Because i cant find any assignment concerning it in the lab manual CCNP2, switching.

Thanks again.
