Yes, it does. I'm sorry I overlooked that in your config.
The "reflector port" needs to be a port not used for anything else live.
It utilizes the ASICs and general logic of the port in order to span
onto the VLAN. This precludes the port from participating in other live
functions.
On the second switch, you configure the source remote vlan 200. And
then put the destination to an actual port.
As for what does the destination port receive, my experience has been
that you still receive your access vlan information as well as the
monitored stuff, which of course makes filtering traffic from your
sniffer very entertaining!
I have not tested this out with the remote vlan, but I would assume that
it works in the same fashion.

Hi Scott,
Does this mean that 3550a port 23 which is part of an Etherchannel will
be removed from the channel group until you remove the SPAN session? In
other words, the actual SPAN traffic is carried by the physical port and
not the Etherchannel? ON the second switch, do I configure the source as
port 23 or should it be
"monitor session 1 source interface port-channel 1"?
Also, since the SPAN VLAN I created is VLAN 200, my PC is on a port
configured for VLAN 192 access, does this mean that only VLAN 200 SPAN
traffic will be received by the PC for the duration of the SPAN session?
Thanks for the clarification.
Elmer

You are correct in your configuration. Now, you DO need to configure
the other side to receive the rspan. :)

Hi all.
I'm not sure I'm following the example on the Configuration Guide for
RSPAN. Here's my setup. 3550a is VTP server, 3550b is client mode. 3550a
ports 23/24 <-- FEC/ISL --> 3550b ports 23/24. 3550a port 1 <-- ISL
Trunk --> R1 port 2 is configured for R2 in VLAN 20. Port 3 is
configured for R5 in VLAN 10. 3550b port 14 has a PC in VLAN 192.
I need to monitor R1,2,5 in 3550a, the destination is PC in 3550b. My
config is as follows (I'm sure this is wrong).
3550a#
int vlan 200 ------ VLAN created for RSPAN purposes only
monitor session 1 source int fa0/1 tx
monitor session 1 source int fa0/2 rx
monitor session 1 source int fa0/3 rx
monitor session 1 destination remote vlan 200 reflector-port fa0/23
Please correct my confusion on this topic.
Thanks.
Elmer
