span source interface is not working as intended in NX-OS

lchan007
Level 1
Level 1

I set up SPAN in nxos switch to capture all traffic (specific interest on one vlan) on switchport Eth25,26,27.

Eth24 is plugged into a Linux server with tcpdump running and it is running as the destination. However, the capture doesn't see anything except for multicast traffic until I specific vlan as the source interface. 

 

I expect the interfaces as source would capture all traffic, but it is not working. What am I missing?

 

 

Not Working

monitor session 2 
  source interface Ethernet1/25 both
  source interface Ethernet1/26 both
  source interface Ethernet1/27 both
  destination interface Ethernet1/24
  no shut

 

Workaround

monitor session 3 
  source interface Vlan802 both
  destination interface Ethernet1/24
  no shut

Are ports e1/25, 26 and 27 supposed to be part of 

vrf member openstack-dmz

context?

HTH

e1/25-27 is part of an SVI. Vlan802 is part of the vrf openstack-dmz

if the VLAN belong to X VRF. and Destination port is in Global Interface right ?

 

Can you post monitor session config also. ( i do not re-call the syntax long back tested - try to dig later at my archieve)

check there is vrf configure required in the monitor session.

BB,
I posted the monitor sessions in the first post, will add the actual config when I get a chance. The only difference is I set the source as the vlan, both don't have vrf configure on the monitor session.
