Tim,

I'm not sure this will work, but at this time I have no equipment to test.
Create a remote vlan on the switch the sniffer is on, source the vlan needed
and send the destination to the remote vlan. Then create another session
and source the remote vlan and use the destination of the sniffer port.

In essence treat the switch with the sniffer just like another remote
switch, except create another session to capture the remote vlan traffic
from itself and all the other remote switches.
