About SVC as a SPAN Source
SPAN sources refer to the interfaces from which traffic can be monitored. You can also specify CSM
nodes as a SPAN source, in which case, the SVC virtual interfaces (N-ports) are included as SPAN
sources. You can choose the SPAN traffic in the ingress direction, the egress direction, or both directions
for any source interface (see
Figure 9-1

FC traffic that
can be spanned
You can also specify the traffic type (initiator traffic, target traffic, or management traffic) in both the
ingress and egress directions or in either direction. To specify this option, use the traffic-type parameter.
Refer to the
