Hello....
Have a Cisco 2950 switch with the following configuration lines:

monitor session 1 source interface Fa0/1
monitor session 1 destination interface Fa0/7 ingress vlan 1
Fa0/1 is ethernet on router
Fa0/7 is 2003 Server with Web filter

This was setup to allow the server to filter and block unwanted web traffic. I think I missed something in that it works fine in that sense however the server can no longer ping the switch.

Waht am I missing?
 
It's not made to do something like this , it is made for analyzing the data from a 1 or more source ports to the destination port so that a sniffer or network analyzer can be attached . Not sure you can do what you are trying to do .
 
I can ping each machine from anywhere in the network they just cant ping each other. My web filter works great with this config but lost telnet and tftp ability from this server. Guess I should just accept this then as a necessary evil. Not a major problem just inconvienant. Is there any other method this could be done?
 
Maybe you can try to treat it like a proxy/firewall such that it becomes some sort of gateway to the Internet.
