Note In the preceeding configuration, it is essential that the Cisco SCE 8000 be operating in receive-only
mode. Other configurations may cause SPAN port traffic to be returned to the switch, causing
unpredictable behavior.

With regard to the preceeding 10 GBE characteristics, the following configuration is not supported in
the 10 GBE environment as shown in Figure A-3. In this configuration, the switch port remains in the
