hi,

I am trying to set up port spanning.
I have a catalyst 2950 switch. When i set up port spanning the destination port shutsdown.

Here are the commands:

conf term
monitor session 1 source int f0/2
monitor session 1 dest int f0/6
end

As soon as i enter the destination port i can no longer see port 6, it no longer reponds to pings.

Thanks
 
I have the same on my 2950 switch. A server for web filtering and the switch port connected to my router. The server cannot ping the switch and the switch cannot ping the server. I believe this is normal and you will find that both devices are operational. You should be able to ping both devices from any other machine. Also you may need to add to the end of the destination statement the following:

monitor session 1 dest int f0/6 ingress vlan #

 
Thanks by putting ingress vlan 1 at the end of the destination statement it worked.
