Command History
Usage Guidelines You cannot use this command for a unidirectional SPAN session.
Extended SPAN sessions cannot source incoming traffic on M1 Series modules in either the ingress or
egress direction. Extended SPAN sessions support traffic only from the F Series and M2 Series modules.
Hardware session 15 is used by NetFlow on F2 and F2e Series modules. Any extended session using this
hardware ID will not span incoming traffic on the F2 and the F2e ports.
This command does not require a license.
Examples This example shows how to configure the SPAN session as an extended bidirectional session:
switch(config)# monitor session 3 tx
switch(config-monitor)# mode extended
