An environment I work in has a cat 5500 terminating multiple wire closets,
servers and head-end routers. We tried spanning a vlan and had many packets
dropped. Pretty ugly. Enable spanning, many connectivity problems, disable
span, all the problems went away.

Be careful.

I was wondering what if any is the effect on CPU, etc. of Spanning to manny
ports? For instance if I am using only the default VLAN and SPAN that VLAN
to
one port could this cause problems? Thanks.
