Re: SPAN port packet related

ohh then what is the problem here with my setup. I have attached my border
router to switch 0/11. My border router traffic 500 Kbps in and 600 Kbps out
round about. I'm using Catalyst 3500 to mirror traffic for port 0/11 to SPAN
0/10.
but it's very strange for me IDS system traffic is not exceeding more than
40 Kbps or 70 Kbps. so If my border outer traffic is more than 500 K then my
IDS system traffic must be 500 K or more than that. logging is workign
properly on IDS for border router. I mean to say I can see traffic is coming
@ my IDS system via 0/11 port.

what could be wrong?

| A copy of all the traffic on port 0/11 and 0/12 will be sent on port
| 0/10 by switch. It will send "everything" coming on these ports.

| 0/12. SPAN port
| is 0/10. my 0/11 port data is upto 1 Mbps. My question is that when
| switch will send packet information to my IDS via SPAN port  it will
| redirect all traffic or it will send simple packet header to IDS sensor.
