# Switch Port Analyzer

Device>Configure>Switch Port Analyzer

You can use switch port analyzer information to gather statistics on traffic between two ports or between a VLAN and a port.

Note: To use the Extended RMON feature, configure the Clear Lake port to be a Switch port Analyzer Destination port like any other Ethernet/FastEthernet switch port. Use 1 as the Destination port number.

The Switch Port Analyzer window displays the following information:

Monitoring Status (monitorEnable)

Indicates whether port monitoring is in progress (enabled).

Destination (monitorDestinationModule)

Module and port where the monitoring destination is located.

Note: When the Clear Lake module is configured as the destination port, the words “Network Analysis Mode” appear in the Destination field of this SPAN configuration window to indicate that the Destination port is Extended RMON capable.

Type of Monitored Packets (monitorDirection)

Type of packets to be monitored at the source port(s): transmit only, receive only, or both.

Source Type (monitorSourceType)

Type of port(s) being monitored. Options include a single port, multiple ports, or all ports in a VLAN.

Source To Be Monitored(monitorAdminSourcePorts)

Administrative status of source Module and Port to be monitored.

Ports Currently Being Monitored (monitorOperSourcePorts)

Ports that are actually being monitored now.
