Suspending or Activating a SPAN Session
The default is to keep the session state shut. To open a session that duplicates packets from sources to
destinations, perform this task:
Command
switch(config)# no monitor session {all
| session-number} shut
The following example shows suspending a SPAN session:
...
switch(config)# monitor session 3 shut
To suspend a SPAN session, perform this task:
Command
switch(config)# monitor session {all |
session-number} shut
The Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch supports two active SPAN sessions. When you configure more than
Note
two SPAN sessions, the first two sessions are active. During startup, the order of active sessions is
reversed; the last two sessions are active. For example, if you configured ten sessions 1 to 10 where 1
and 2 are active, after a reboot, sessions 9 and 10 will be active. To enable deterministic behavior,
explicitly suspend the sessions 3 to 10 with the monitor session session-number shut command.

Command
