Chapter 59 ERSPAN

59.1 Introduction to ERSPAN

ERSPAN(Encapsulated Remote Switched Port Analyzer) eliminates the limitation that the

source port and the destination port must be located on the same switch. This feature makes it

possible for the source port and the destination port to be located on different devices in the

network, and facilitates the network administrator to manage remote switches. Compared with

the traditional RSPAN, ERSPAN configuration is simpler and it makes the monitored traffic to

be transmitted in the specified tunnel.

To be noticed

1. Monitor source of ERSPAN monitor only supports port monitor, it does not support CPU

monitor and flow monitor presently.

2. For the source and destination switches in the ERSPAN connections, a tunnel must be

existed.

3. When configuring the remote mirror function, the network bandwidth should be considered

in order to carry the network flow and the mirrored flow.

Keywards:

ERSPAN: Encapsulated Remote Switched Port Analyzer.
