When I span both TX&RX VLAN traffic to a Gig monitor port and capture
the traffic using Ethereal, I receive identical cloned frames in my captured datasets. IE.. two frames contain the exact same contents including the sequence number. I am using the SPAN function on a Cisco 6500 running IOS to direct a single VLAN's traffic to a GigE monitor port. If I SPAN only TX (OR) RX traffic I do not receive any cloned frames in the Ethereal capture. I am trying to capture all traffic from all the nodes connected to the VLAN just as if they were connected to a physical network hub. Anyone have any idea how I might use the SPAN feature and Ethereal for this purpose and not get cloned frames? Thanks Very Much In Advance for Any Help Regards Ron show ver Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) c6sup2_rp Software (c6sup2_rp-JK2S-M), Version 12.1(26)E4, RELEASE SOFT WARE (fc1) Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport Copyright (c) 1986-2005 by cisco Systems, Inc.
